This paper involves a study to investigate the association between pledging policies by the government and financial performance of cassava product manufacturers in Thailand. A polynomial regression model is constructed to describe a key financial performance measure using a set of control variables and pledging policy variables. The control variables are obtained from financial statements of 58 starch manufacturers and 8 ethanol manufacturers that solely use fresh cassava roots as raw material during 2009-2014. Result from the model suggests an appropriate agricultural policy for the cassava product industry in Thailand.

Full textAbstract:
Cassava-chip is considered one of Thailand’s most important economic crops and Thailand is the world’s largest cassava products exporter. Thai government is prioritizing the cassava production in their “Mega farm” strategy in support of agricultural economic and collaboration between farmer, public and private sectors. The collaborative model is an integrated supply chain that manages the multiple stakeholders. Moreover, implementing the collaborative supply chain (CSC) has improve overall performance of the entire supply chain. The study aims to review existing literature on collaborative model and critical success factors in the agriculture supply chain context during 2008-2018 and the 20-year agriculture and cooperatives strategy (2017-2036). The six key collaborative success factors are identified: Business Management, Information Technology, Value Added Process, SC Relationship, Top Management Commitment, Partnership, Service Quality, Process, Resource Capability, Environment Uncertainties, Customer Satisfaction. The hypothesis will be tested by the linear regression analysis and develop the prototype of CSC mobile application to create the collaboration in cassava chip industry. Then, the result will be embedded into mobile application. The application will later be used to provide more appropriate third-party system to enhance the collaborative cassava chip supply chain in Thailand. The result shows that all components are supported by the hypothesis and user acceptance test.

Although Thailand cassava agro-industry is the huge industry generating high agricultural income for all involving actors; this industry still faces many troubles. Therefore, it is challenging on analysis of stability in this industry. The problems are from internal and external sources. The main analysis method chosen is internal-external analysis to understand the structure of the industry and to identify the key elements possibly propelling Thai cassava industry to stability. The stability of industry will occur if farmers can be self-sufficient in terms of economic gain. All of actors should join force as cluster in production technology improvement, Research and Development (R&D) of new and higher value products, and new market regionalization.

Full textAbstract:
Genetic modification has led to fierce debates around the world. Nevertheless, scientific evidence for its potential effects on the structure and performance of industries has hitherto remained rather meagre. In this article, we take some preliminary steps towards closing this gap by exploring the effects of the introduction of a genetically modified cassava variety on the structure and efficiency of the starch industry in Thailand. Currently, producers of cassava starch are confronted with a problem called post-harvest deterioration, which reduces the quantity and quality of starch in cassava roots within 24 to 48 hours after harvesting, leading to lower payments for farmers and lower starch recovery rates for factories. In addition, post-harvest deterioration prohibits factory owners to hold large stocks of fresh cassava. Combined with a strong seasonal fluctuation of supply, this leads to a low utilisation of installed processing capacities at the starch factories. In this article, we examine how the structure and performance of the Thai starch industry would change in case a genetically modified cassava variety would be introduced that no longer suffers from post-harvest deterioration. After having interviewed 19 stakeholders in this industry, we developed two simple linear programming models to examine the optimal locations, capacity classes and utilisation percentages for starch processing plants in the Northeast of Thailand. Our findings demonstrate that an extension of the storability of cassava to 45 days will not only diminish the number of factories needed, but it will also cause most large-sized factories to be replaced with medium-sized plants. Moreover, introducing a new cassava variety with such properties is estimated to render benefits of approximately US $ 35 million for Thai cassava farmers and factory owners.

Full textAbstract:
This paper aims to analyze ethanol supply chain in Thailand. The analysis covered three main parts: supply chain structure, material flow and related costs in supply chain. The results showed that Thai ethanol supply chain is complex because it involves many stakeholders in both public and private agencies. Molasses and cassava are the main feedstocks of ethanol production in Thailand, so the upstream suppliers of ethanol supply chain are sugarcane and cassava farmers, and the collectors. The feedstocks cost of ethanol plants is high due to the fluctuation of sugarcane and cassava price. There is also a trade barrier to control both production and transportation of ethanol because it under the Liquor Act. Moreover, the distribution of ethanol has low efficiency and long distance of truck transport contribute to high transportation cost. Consequently, logistics system of Thai ethanol supply chain should be improved more efficient in order to support demand expansion of ethanol industry.

Full textAbstract:
Food safety is becoming more important in Thailand, especially when the country officially joins the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) in the year 2015. In this study, key food safety factors and their associated items were mainly extracted from the two international food safety standards: the HACCP and the GMP standards. The questionnaire survey was used to collect data from cassava manufacturers for the exploratory factor analysis and the structural equation modelling. The analysis results revealed seven key factors in enhancing food safety standards: 1) Management, 2) Man, 3) Environment, 4) Material-Related, 5) Method, 6) Machine, and 7) Raw Material. The structural equation modelling results revealed causal relationships among the seven key factors. It was found that the Management factor is the most important factor in enhancing food safety standard in Thailand as it influences all other factors, both directly and indirectly. Management should, hence, set up realistic food safety policies, assign appropriate safety responsibility to the lower levels, and provide adequate necessary resources to improve food safety in the cassava industry.

Full textAbstract:
In Thailand new edible cassava varieties have been developed to be used in the food industry. The aim of this research was to analyze the difference between flour from three cassava varieties and to evaluate the suitability and quality of flour for gluten-free muffins. The physico-chemical properties of flour from three varieties were studied. The results showed the moisture content of flour was between 10.65 ± 0.01 and 10.85 ± 0.45%. Total protein content was highly significant with a difference of 1.97 ± 0.00%, 2.15 ± 0.01%, and 2.18 ± 0.01%, respectively. Moreover, ash and fat in each flour were highly significant. Amylose content was 19.93 ± 0.47%, and the viscosity was 6286.00 ± 1.52 mPa.s. The color of flour values of L* a* b* value was not statistically different in each variety of flour. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis was used for the biochemical change in flour. The PCA and cluster analysis results revealed that cassava flour from Pirun 6 was different from Pirun 2 and Pirun 4. After that, the test using selected cassava flour from Pirun 6 to test the physical properties and sensory attributes of gluten-free muffins compared with wheat flour found that gluten-free muffins were overall better than basic muffins.

Full textAbstract:
In Ghana, cassava is a marginalized crop in food policies due to low research attention given it. However, high starch in cassava root is an important characteristic that makes the crop a potential industrial cash crop. In light of this, the Government of Ghana in 2001 introduced the Presidential Special Initiative (PSI) on Cassava, which aimed at industrializing the cassava sector for job creation and livelihood improvement through starch extraction. One of the import industrial products from cassava starch is ethanol. Ethanol is reported as the largest opportunity for cassava industrialization in Ghana followed by food-grade starch. However, the local ethanol consuming industry, Kasapreko, operates by importing over 25 million litres of ethanol every year due to inadequate supply of ethanol from local starch factories. This situation exists because of lack of cassava varieties that can yield more starch (75% or more) per total dry weight to feed the starch factories for sustainable production. Therefore, this review explores the relevance of developing high starch yielding cassava to the industrialization of the cassava sector in Ghana and lessons to learn from the success story of Thailand, the country with the world’s most industrialized cassava sector.

Abstract Thai cassava starch industry generates solid waste or pulp approximately of 9.5 Mt/y (with a moisture content of 70–80%). Biogas production technology has been introduced for several decades in Thailand. However, the implementation of biogas production using cassava pulp as a feedstock is still limited due to the complex lignocellulosic structure, which diminishes hydrolysis. This work investigated biogas production from cassava pulp in a 50-m3 pilot-scale sequencing batch reactor (SBR) and continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR). Both reactors were fed with cassava pulp, under the organic loading rate (OLR) of 8 kg-COD/m3-d and the average hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 7 d. Under the batch operation, more than 60% of the starch content was utilized within the first three days. The SBR achieved methane production of 1.87 m3-CH4/ton-pulpfresh-d and acids production of 2.19 kg-TVA/ton-pulpfresh-d while the CSTR had methane production of 0.22 m3-CH4/ton-pulpfresh-d and acids production of 7.07 kg-TVA/ton-pulpfresh-d. The methane production was higher in the SBR because the settling process helped microorganisms remain in the system. In CSTR, acids rather than methane were produced due to the washout of methanogenic microorganisms. This work revealed that the SBR yielded higher biogas production, while the CSTR produced intermediate acids, which could be supplied to the biochemical industry.

Full textAbstract:
Context Suboptimal beef production resulting from poor growth performance of the animals in Thailand may be due to insufficient energy and protein in the animal feed. Therefore, there is a need to find new, locally available and economical nutrient-rich feed resources. By-products from the agri-industry could be one such alternative to improve livestock feed quality. The aim of the study was to evaluate the feed intake, nutrient digestibility, rumen fermentation and microbial population of additive fermented cassava pulp with residues from noodle factory (CN). Four beef cattle at ~2–3 years of age were randomly assigned according to a 4 × 4 Latin square design. Four feed treatments had cassava pulp:residue ratios of 0:0 (NCN), 70:30 (CN1), 60:40 (CN2), 50:50 (CN3). In conclusion, feeding with CN at 60:40 might be an alternative to improve rumen fermentation efficiency, estimated energy, apparent digestibility and bacteria population. Aims The aim of the present study was to determine feed intake, nutrient digestibility, rumen fermentation and microbial population of cattle fed additive fermented cassava pulp with residues from noodle factory (CN). Methods Four beef cattle of ~2–3 years of age and of initial bodyweight of 150 ± 40 kg were randomly assigned to the following four treatments, according to a 4 × 4 Latin square design: cassava pulp:residue at ratios of 0:0 (NCN), 70:30 (CN1), 60:40 (CN2) and 50:50 (CN3) was added. All animals were fed concentrated 16% crude protein and cassava pulp–residue at 1% of bodyweight of animals. Rice straw, water and mineral salt block were offered ad libitum. Key results Feed intake and bodyweight change were not affected, while estimated energy intake and nutrient digestibilities increased (P < 0.05) after animals were fed CN2 and CN3. Ruminal pH, ruminal temperature, ammonia nitrogen and blood urea nitrogen were not altered by CN, whereas total volatile fatty acids and the proportion of propionate increased with an increasing proportion of residues from noodle factory (P < 0.05). Simultaneously, methane production was reduced by CN. In addition, bacterial population and efficiency of microbial nitrogen synthesis were increased (P < 0.05) by CN. Real-time polymerase chain reaction showed that the populations of total bacterial and F. succinogenes increased (P < 0.05), whereas populations of protozoa, R. flavefaciens and R. albus were not significantly different among the treatments. Conclusions It is concluded that feeding with CN can improve rumen fermentation efficiency, estimated energy, apparent digestibility and bacterial population. Feeding with CN2 is recommended because it showed the best response Implications Agri-industry by-products such as cassava pulp and residues from noodle factory can provide an economical alternative to improve feed quality and, hence, beef animal performace in Thailand.

Full textAbstract:
Cassava has become one of the most important crops for the Thai
economy since the mid 1970's. It is produced mainly for export as a
grain substitute for livestock feed in the European Community (EC).
Cassava imports by the EC are clearly a case of "trade diversion"
resulting from the EC's Common Agricultural Policy. They illustrate the
weaknesses of such policies. The trade between Thailand and the EC
represents the bulk of cassava trade in the world market. The export of
Thai cassava to the EC has been restricted since 1983 by a Voluntary
Export Restrictions Agreement (VERA) between Thailand and the EC. Thus
Thailand has had to reduce its cassava export to the EC from 6 million
tons to 5.25 million tons in 1983 and 1984 and 4.75 million tons in
1985 and 1986. In contrast to normal EC import quotas, however,
Thailand is able to allocate the quota. The main consideration in
allocating the quota is the maintenance of the producer price of
cassava to protect cassava farmers.
This study analyzes and quantifies the impact of the VERA and Thai
government policy on the cassava industry in Thailand, and how the
economic rents arising from the VERA are allocated amongst cassava
traders and farmers. The cross effects on grain and livestock
production in the EC and world markets are analyzed using a partial
equilibrium model to asses the impact of the VERA on coarse grain use
in the EC. Various scenarios, including the possibility of Thailand not
signing the agreement with the EC are simulated. Prospects for new
markets for cassava as livestock feed are explored.
