Declining productivity of agricultural soils in Northeast Thailand is a challenge facing land managers and farmers. A program was initiated in 2002 to investigate the potential role of incorporating clay-based materials into degraded soils as a means of enhancing productivity. This research repor...

Quantifying soil chemical degradation associated with changed land use and the development of an acidity risk map for Northeast Thailand
Many farms in tropical countries suffer from droughts in the dry season and sometimes even in the rainy season. In order to significantly increase the capacity to store water, the grassroots Farmer Wisdom movement in Northeast Thailand innovated pond construction on homesteads. This Working Paper...

Multiple sources of water for multiple purposes in northeast Thailand
Using survey data collected from 250 farmers, this paper evaluates the impact of the Soil Remediation Research Project (SRRP) undertaken by International Water Management Institute (IWMI) in Northeast Thailand during 2002-2005. SRRP has demonstrated and promoted the application of clay as a quick...

Enhancing the agronomic productivity of degraded soils in Northeast Thailand through clay-based interventions
Acidification of soil profiles from legume and N fertilized crops is a serious sustainability threat. Under tropical conditions of Northeast Thailand and Northern Australia, acidification to >90 cm has been recorded in Stylosanthes and Leucaena based pasture systems. Acidification has also been m...

Remediation of soil acidification by form of nitrogen fertilizer on grass swards of Australia and Thailand
Productivity decline occurs in many agronomic systems due to loss of soil organic matter and a consequent decline in soil fertility. This is pronounced in light textured soils, which even in their pristine state can have low levels of fertility. High temperatures and leaching conditions in tropic...

Light textured sandy soils in northeast Thailand are often highly weathered and degraded resulting in low nutrient and water holding capacities. The latter is further complicated by the structural instability of these soils. Field based soil amelioration studies were undertaken in order to evalua...
