The purpose of this study was to indicate the sustainability of Thai Hom Mali Rice

intensive cultivation provinces, as Phayao (Northern region), Sisaket (Northeastern),
Chachoengsao (Central region) and Nakhonsithammarat (Southern region). Two indicators had
were assigned to assess the sustainable cultivation of Thai’s farmers, namely as Sustainability in
Cultivation Practices (SCP), and the Composite Sustainability Indicators (CSI). Indicators of
each region had performed by this study. The findings revealed that where the northeastern
region had the highest values of SCP and level of CSI level in the country. than other regions of
Thailand. Besides, the independent variables of SCP, in particularly production costs, chemical
and fertilizer utilization, the risk of weeds and pest, were found to be the significantly common
variables in the most of regions of THMR cultivation.
