Applying Geographic Information System to Evaluate Risk Areas of Illegal Logging in Conservation Areas at Maehongson Province
Get PDFBackground and Objectives: Illegal logging in protected forest areas is a significant problem that has a major impact on biodiversity and the habitats of forest animals. The objective of this study was to analyze the factors influencing illegal logging and assess the areas at risk of illegal logging in Mae Hong Son province, Thailand.
Methodology: The study used data on observed logging points in the period between 2020-2021, and employed statistical modeling with eight environmental factors: elevation above sea level, slope, aspect, distance from rivers, distance from roads, distance from villages, distance from patrol station units, and NDVI. The MaxEnt program and geographic information system (GIS) were applied.
Main Results: The study found that the factors with the highest impact on illegal logging were elevation above sea level, distance from roads, and slope. The statistically significant AUC was 0.805. The results indicated that the area at low risk of illegal logging covered approximately 2,457,988.34 rai, accounting for 78.58% of the total area. The moderately high-risk area covered 590,761.76 rai, accounting for 18.89%, and the high-risk area covered 79,127.48 rai, accounting for 2.53%.
Conclusion: The area with a high risk of illegal logging is an area near the road, with low slopes, and at an elevation of 100 to 400 meters above mean sea level. These findings can be used as a tool for planning and implementing measures to prevent and combat illegal logging in conservation areas. They can be applied to plan forest patrolling operations based on the level of risk in each area, thus improving the effectiveness of conservation efforts in the conservation areas
Species diversity and ecology of edible wild-mushroom at Ban Boonjam community forest, Phrae Province
Get PDFEdible wild-mushrooms are a source of food and income for many local Thai people living around natural forest area but little is known about the environment factors enhancing their productivity. The objectives of this study, therefore, were (1) to explore species diversity of edible wild - mushroom (2) to measure and analyze environmental factors enhancing mushroom fruiting body yield and (3) to study edible wild-mushroom ecology. For exploration, 10 permanent sampling plots (plot size 40 x 40 m2) were established in dry dipterocarp forest and mixed deciduous forest at Ban Boonjam community forest, Rongkwang District, Phrae Province. Mushrooms were surveyed and soils were sampled. Meteorological instrumentation (real - time record) has been set up on study area since April 2017. The results showed that 9 genus 16 species of edible wild - mushrooms were found. The dominant species were identified in genus Russula such as R. luteotacta, R. cyanoxantha, R. alboareolata. Seventy-five percent of edible mushroom species were classified as mycorrhizal mushroom. They were found in dry dipterocarp forest only where Shorea obtusa, S. siamensis and Dipterocarpus tuberculatus were mushroom’s hosted plants. All mushroom fruiting bodies were found in rainy season (a month after heavy rain; monthly rainfall greater than 90 mm.), soil moisture between 11.5-13.5 % and soil pH ranged from 5.0 to 7.0. This study adds to a better understanding of the natural production of edible wild-mushrooms in area and serves as baseline for the future years of studying these sites and could be applied for other areas in the future

Get PDFBangkrasop forest conservation (BFC), Nakhon Khuean Khan Park and Botanical Garden, Samut Prakan Province, is known as the nature leaning center for urbanization, particular the riverine ecosystems as dominated Lumpoo (Sonneratia caseolaris) and firefly are coexisted. This study aimed to clarify the forest structure and species composition, in addition, the forest regeneration after restoration program. In 2018, a 0.5 hectare (50 m ? 100 m) permanent plot was setup and subplots of 10 m ? 10 m were divided, total 50 subplots. All trees with diameter at breast height (DBH) over than 2 cm were taged, measured, identified, and tree location alsorecorded in every subplot. The results showed the total tree species of 31 species 28 genera and 16 families were found. Intemediate species diversity based on Shannon-Weiner was detectected (H/=2.16), while, tree density and basal area were 2,046 individual.ha-1 and 16.42 m2.ha-1, respectively. The most dominant family based on species numbe was Fabaceae (7 speciess), and followed by Moraceae (4 species) and Rhizophoraceae (3 species), respectively. While, family of Apocynaceae was the dominant family based on tree density, and followed by Malvaceae and Lythraceae, respectively. Consisdering on forest regeneration, the negative exponential growth form or L-shape based on diameter class distribution was detected. Indicating the good natural regeneration process was detected in which small trees can be replaced the mature trees in the future. However, it varied among species, particular, planted tree species such as Sonneratia alba and Rhizophora mucronata which unimodal shape was found. Indicating these species had not good regenearated in the areas, thus, the proper environments should be manage for increasing their populations

Get PDFForest restoration is the high challenge of Royal Forest Department. Then, many degraded areas were planted to restore the previous ecosystems. This study aimed to clarify tree species regeneration after planting under the Royal Patronage of Her Majesty Queen Sirikit of Thailand (Forestry), Ang Thong province. In 2013, a 1 ha, 100 x 100 m, was established in two different planted systems, random and regular planting, and monitored in 2018. All trees with diameter at breast height (DBH) larger than 4.5 cm were tagged, measured, identified, and recorded location in plot. The comparison of forest structure and species composition was done between the restoration areas. The results showed higher species number was found in the random planted system than regular planted systems (67 and 28 species, respectively), and corresponded to species diversity based on Shannon-Weiner (H?= 3.35 and H?= 2.37, respectively). Tree growth based on the basal area cover also was found the same trended (18.25 and 14.63 m2.ha-1, respectively), indicating high average growth in the random planted system. Considering on tree regeneration based on tree diameter class distribution, both planted systems had the negative exponential form or L-shape, indicating they had no different to maintain their forest structure in the future
EFFECT OF FEEDING LINSEED AND LINSEED OIL ON THE COMPOSITION OF FATTY ACIDS IN LACTATING MURRAH BUFFALO MILK
Get PDFThe objective of the current study was to determine how supplementing with whole linseed (WLS) and linseed oil (LSO) affected the composition of fatty acids in lactating Murrah buffaloes. Eighteen Murrah buffaloes were separated into three groups (T0, T1, and T2), each consisting of six animals, two weeks after giving birth, according to their body weight (516.50±9.53 kg), amount of milk produced (7.55±0.3 kg), percentage of fat (6.67±0.29%), and lactation stage (2 weeks post-partum). To meet the nutritional needs of Murrah buffaloes, the Control group (T0) of buffaloes received a basal diet consisting of wheat straw (WS), green fodder, and concentrate mixture (69.03:30.97; roughage: concentrate ratio). In the experimental feeding trial that is being described, the control feed is supplemented with either linseed oil (250 g/d) in T1 and whole linseed (570 g/d) in T2. The experimental diets are fed to the Murrah buffaloes for a period of two months, beginning at 15 days following parturition. On the other hand, the data was recorded over a six-month period. To determine the nutrient’s digestibility, a seven-day digestion trial was carried out following the feeding trial. The results demonstrated that there were no significant effects (P>0.05) of linseed oil or whole linseed supplementation on total DMI, live weight change, nutrient digestibility, milk yield, or milk composition. In comparison to the Control group (T0), diets supplemented with linseed oil and whole linseed diets led to a decrease in C12:0-C16:0 FA (P<0.05) and an increase in trans-9,12-C18:2, cis-9,12,15-C18:3, and cis-6,9,12-18:3 (P<0.05). Diets rich in linseed produced higher (P<0.05) milk fat cis-9,12,15-C18:3, which corresponded to 76.20% and 85.71% in the T1 and T2 groups, respectively, when compared to the T0 group. Milk cis-9,trans-11-CLA significantly increased (P<0.05) in T1 and T2 (11% and 115%, respectively) compared to the control due to the biohydrogenation of linoleic acid in the buffaloes’ rumen. In the T1 and T2 groups, there was a significant (P<0.05) increase in the concentrations of milk DHA. Consequently, when compared to the control diet, the animals fed linseed oil and whole linseed diets had higher milk unsaturated fatty acids (UFA) (45.06 % and 46.87%) and lower milk saturated fatty acids (27.21% and 30.00%). The UFA to SFA ratio also increased in the LSO and WLS containing groups compared to the Control group (P<0.05). In comparison to the Control group, the T1 (121.21%; 62.61 respectively) and T2 (124.24%; 61.71% respectively) groups showed a significant (P<0.05) improvement in the proportion of total n-3 and n-6 fatty acid. In conclusion, adding linseed oil or whole linseed to Murrah buffaloes did not change the amount of milk produced or its composition; however, it did increase trans-11-C18:1, cis-9, trans-11-CLA, n-3 fatty acid, and unsaturated fatty acid while significantly lowering saturated fatty acid. Thus, adding 250 g/d of linseed oil or 570 g/d of whole linseed to the milk of nursing Murrah buffalo may help to improve the milk’s fatty acid profile
Valuing Workplace Risks in Thailand: Insights into the Value of Statistical Life and Injury
Get PDFPromoting safe working environments is crucial to achieving Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 8. However, progress in Thailand has been hindered by persistently high rates of workplace fatalities and injuries. Estimating their economic cost is essential for designing effective policies. This study uses national labor force survey data and workplace risk information from 2014 to 2021 to estimate the Value of a Statistical Life (VSL), the Value of a Statistical Injury (VSI), and the human cost of occupational risks in Thailand. It provides the first comprehensive VSL and VSI estimates for the country, addressing endogeneity and selection bias while considering both fatal and non-fatal risks. Using a hedonic log-wage model, the 2021 VSL and VSI averaged USD 2,015,693.92 and USD 697,579.49 (PPP), respectively. The results reveal disparities: male and non-manual workers had higher values than female and manual workers, while older workers and those in Bangkok had the highest estimates. Notably, injuries imposed a greater economic burden than fatalities, as reflected in VSI values. These findings underscore the need to reassess Thailand’s compensation structures and safety regulations to better reflect the true costs of occupational hazards
