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.
จากการได้เข้าไปศึกษาดูงานที่ ชุมชนเกษตรกรผู้ปลูกลำไย อำเภอวังน้ำเย็น จังหวัดสระแก้ว ได้พบปัญหาคือราคาลำไยตกต่ำ ขายแล้วขาดทุน ส่งผลให้เกษตรกรได้แก้ปัญหา ด้วยการนำลำไยไปทำลำไยอบแห้ง ซึ่งจากกระบวนการผลิตลำไยอบแห้ง จะมีผลิตภัณฑ์ผลพลอยได้คือเปลือกและเมล็ดลำไย ซึ่งสามารถนำมาแปรรูปเป็นชาผงสำเร็จรูปพร้อมดื่มได้

"Eco Mango Pack: Eco-friendly Packaging for a Sustainable Future" focuses on developing innovative packaging for Nam Dok Mai mangoes, considering fruit safety, shelf life, and environmental impact. The selected materials include a box made from coconut husk, and dry water hyacinth stems have been utilized as internal cushioning to enhance shock resistance. Additionally, dried coffee grounds are incorporated into the packaging to extend the mango's shelf life. The design also takes into account the needs of small-scale farmers, making the packaging suitable for community enterprise production and reducing production costs. This project aims to add value to Thai agricultural products, support the circular economy concept, and promote the use of environmentally friendly materials in the packaging industry.

Parking space shortages in urban areas contribute to traffic congestion, inefficient land use, and environmental challenges. Automated Parking Systems (APS) provide an innovative solution by optimizing space utilization, reducing search times, and minimizing carbon emissions. This research investigates key factors influencing user adoption of APS technology using the UTAUT2 framework, focusing on variables such as Performance Expectancy, Effort Expectancy, Social Influence, Trust in Technology, and Environmental Consciousness. The APS Evolution project presents a smart parking solution that enhances efficiency, minimizes environmental impact, and improves user experience in urban settings. The initiative emphasizes technology-driven urban mobility and sustainable parking management to align with the evolving needs of modern cities.

The objective of this experiment was to determine the effect of nitrogen and potassium concentration combination with photoperiod on the growth of Viola in a plant factory to increase the quality of the products, reduce the production time and increase the production cycle throughout the year. The experimental plan was 3x3 Factorial in CRD with nine treatments and three replications (six plants per replication). The factor of this study was two factors; the first factor was three different concentrations of nitrogen and potassium in ratios of 1:1, 1:2 and 2:1. The second factor was the application of different photoperiods. There were 1) 24-hours photoperiod, 2) 8-hours light/16-hours dark photoperiod (Induced flowering state: 13-hours light/11-hours dark photoperiod) and 3) 5-hours light/3-hours dark photoperiod. Controlled temperature at 25 °C, the EC=1.5-2.0 mS/cm and the pH=5.8-6.5 in all treatment. The result showed that the concentration of N: K in the ratio of 1:1 combined with 24-hour photoperiod was the most vegetative growth and also maximizes reproductive growth. The overall great sensory evaluation was an acceptable level and suitable for cooking or decorating dishes. Therefore, the concentration of N: K in the ratio of 1:1 combined with 24-hour photoperiod is the best treatment to increase the quality of the product, reduce the production time of viola flowers in each cycle from 90-100 days down to 43-45 days which is good for farmers.
