This is the place where the Hup Kraphong Royal
Development Project is located. King Bhumibhol initiated the project in
1962 with the support of Israel to help local farmers experiencing
agricultural difficulties as a result from infertile soil. Several
studies on soil improvement, various crash crops and production
efficiency have been conducted. This is one Thailand's leading Royal
Projects where travelers can visit to purchase farm produce, crafts
(usually made of hemp) and folk art products which have been exported
to many Asian and European countries.
