This research aims to investigate the adulteration of Khao Dawk Mali 105 rice based on storage age using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) with Fourier Transform Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-NIR) in the wavenumber range of 12,500 – 4,000 cm-1 (800 – 2,500 nm). Storage duration significantly impacts the quality of cooked rice. This research is divided into two parts: 1) to investigate the feasibility of separating rice according to storage age (1, 2, and 3 years) using the best model created by an Ensemble method combined with Second Derivative, which achieved an accuracy of 96.3%. 2) To investigate adulteration based on storage age by adulterating at 0% (all 2- and 3-year-old rice), 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, and 100% (all 1-year-old rice). The best model was created using Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) combined with Smoothing + Multiplicative Scatter Correction (MSC), with coefficients of determination (r²), root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP), bias, and prediction ability (RPD) values of 0.92, 8.6%, 0.9%, and 3.6 respectively. This demonstrates that the adulteration model can be applied to separate rice by storage age (1, 2, and 3 years). Additionally, the color values of rice with different storage ages show differences in L* and b* values.
โรงงานผู้ผลิตข้าวพบปัญหาการปลอมปนของข้าวสารที่มีอายุการเก็บรักษาต่างกัน โดยทั่วไปการคัดแยกการปลอมปนจะใช้วิธีมาตรฐานโดยการหุงข้าว จากนั้นนำข้าวหุงสุกไปวัดเนื้อสัมผัสเพื่อแยกอายุของข้าว ซึ่งใช้เวลาและเป็นการทำลายตัวอย่างและเกิดความล่าช้าในการตรวจสอบคุณภาพข้าวสาร งานวิจัยนี้ใช้เทคนิคเนียร์อินฟราเรดสเปกโทรสโกปี (Near-Infrared Spectroscopy, NIRS) ในการตรวจสอบการปลอมปนของข้าวสารพันธุ์ขาวดอกมะลิ 105 (KDML 105) ที่อายุการเก็บรักษาต่างกันเพื่อแก้ไขปัญหาดังกล่าว

This research aimed to develop the mixed tea from longan peels and seeds. Population studied were longan farmers who planted longan and preserved the longan product in Ampur Wang Nam Yen, Sa Kaeo Province. From the results, it was found that from By-product in the production of dehydrated longan, longan peels and seeds, which can be processed into ready-to-drink powdered tea. This not only helps reduce waste from the production process but also contributes to generating additional income from these by-products.

This study aims to develop a board game for teaching Integrated Farming System and to examine the learning achievement of third-year vocational certificate students at Ratchaburi College of Agriculture and Technology who used the board game as a learning tool. The research instruments included a board game developed using the Educational Boardgame Design Canvas. The board game is a strategic planning game consisting of five game boards, and 166 cards categorized into four types: 30 event cards, 60 special action cards, 16 character cards, and 60 production cards. It also includes 180 resource tokens of six kinds: 60 water tokens, 60 soil tokens, 45 plant product tokens, 45 animal product tokens, 45 aquatic product tokens, and 45 currency tokens. Additional components include one die and five player aid sheets. The game emphasizes planning and decision-making in integrated farming to maximize production and achievement points under game conditions and simulated scenarios. Research tools also included pre-and post-tests and a satisfaction questionnaire. The results indicated that students’ average scores significantly increased at the .05 level after using the board game, with the average pre-test score at 6.54 and the post-test score rising to 17.71. Additionally, an analysis of student satisfaction with board game-based learning revealed a high level of satisfaction (mean score = 4.45). The highest-rated aspects were the teacher’s implementation of post-tests (mean score = 4.69) and the engaging and diverse teaching methods used (mean score = 4.66).

Currently, urban agriculture is gaining increasing attention as it helps enhance food security and expand green spaces in cities. However, some people remain uninterested in urban farming, possibly due to living in urban areas or having limited space, making them perceive agriculture as something distant from their daily lives. The development of an urban agriculture card game aims to promote learning about urban farming through an engaging and enjoyable gameplay experience.
