Abstract

Land degradation is one of the major constraints of agriculture worldwide including Thailand. Sustainable land management (SLM) practices have been promoted over many decades for helping farmers to increase land fertility, reduce cost, increase crop yield and earn a stable income to meet the standard of living. However, SLM practices are not wildly adopted by farmers especially in the Northeast region of the country. The main constraints of doing this practice according to farmers who adopt and adopt-non adopters is the digestion of rice straw which bring about insect destroyed product in the field. Also, if they do it more than one time, it increases production cost. Some of them give up to adopt because of these constraints and turning back to field burning because of it easy to manage. On the other hand, Many farmers learned from the training and believed that this practice would improve soil quality and reduce the cost of fertilizer
