| Résumé : | The basin of the Chao Praya river system in central Thailand has long been known as one of the great ‘rice bowls’ of monsoon Asia. In the mid-nineteenth century, visitors were amazed by the scale of production there, much of itfor export. Over the past fifty years, however, rice cultivation has been transformed by new seed varieties, increased mechanisation and lower labour requirements. At the same time emigration from the main rice-growing areas, urbanisation and diversification of agriculture have led to very different patterns in the Thai rural landscape, economy and society. |
