How are farmers producing a high quality rice under the given conditions on cultivation and farm management? What roles are rice miller and trader playing in order to meet the increased demand for high quality rice in local market as well as export market? What actions should rice exporters take for the increased rice export? This paper is summarized as follows. 1) During the last decade in Thailand, consumption, production and export for the high quality rice have been increasing significantly. The selling price as well as export price are relatively higher than ordinary rice. Southern part of northeast region in Thailand is production centre for high quality rice. 2) The targeted farmers are producing a high quality rice with use of self-acquired seed and low agricultural input at the rain fed paddy field. A harvested paddy is moving to the local rice miller and rice assembler for sale. A middle sized land holder has the highest profit per one rai ( = 0.16 ha). 3) Brokers handling the milled rice are playing important roles in terms of collecting and disseminate the market information for rice farmer and negotiating the price with stakeholders. Guaranteed rice price policy is effective in enhancing the production and income for rice farmers, as well. 4) In order to increase the high quality rice for export, tasks tackled should be put on reducing the production cost while keeping the high quality of rice and falling down the export price. Needed actions should increase rice production under the use of improved seed, reducing the marketing cost through the adequate market competition and properly determining the market price for rice.}, pages = {17--30}, title = {タイにおける高品質米の生産・流通と輸出拡大戦略}, volume = {40}, year = {2011} }
