INOCULANTS FUNGAL Trichoderma, Mucor AND Bacillus FOR COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BASED ON SUFFICIENCY ECONOMY PHILOSOPHY

Abstract

His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej of Thailand has conceived and developed a new philosophy to improve the lives of the Thai people and bring them a genuine and lasting happiness. This new philosophy is called "sufficiency economy" or "sufficiency economy philosophy". This research has the objective to create and develop innovation Khok-kham bio-fertilizer for aimed to community development by inoculants Trichoderma, Mucor and Bacillus based on sufficiency economy philosophy. Khok-kham community in Samut Sakhon province and Khanom community in Nakhon Si Thammarat province were selected for studying the efficiency of innovation Khok-kham bio-fertilizer. Nutrient analysis of innovation Khok-kham bio-fertilizer indicates high macronutrients of Nitrogen, Potassium and Phosphorus with the 84.33% of average value. The planting mangrove tree remove heavy metals such as Lead (Pb), Cadmium (Cd) and Copper (Cu) in soil with the average value of 98.6%. Moreover, it can help speed up 4 times of mangrove tree rate when compared to control case. This can also be applied for recovering mangrove forest area in the condition of limits of times. Innovation Khok-kham bio-fertilizer, can increase rice productivity, reduce costs of 5-6 times and improve soils acid. In summary, innovation Khok-kham bio-fertilizer is very useful for planting mangrove, increasing the productive of organic rice, vegetable and restoring mangrove forest area so that the community is developed based on sufficiency economy philosophy.
