The objectives of this study were to investigate communities confidence in their local leaders the locals awareness and factors affecting peoples participation in the water quality management. Data were collected from interviewing 400 households and analyzed with a Logit model. Results showed that the samples were well aware of water quality problems. The communities confidence in their local leaders was in a middle level and the communities’ participation in common activities was low. Factors that affected communities participation in water quality management were confidence in local leaders membership of the conservation groups education level and awareness of water source problem respectively.

The purposes of the study were firstly to develop video program on commercial fruits and vegetables carving for accessing to ASEAN secondly to find out the video efficiency based on 80/80 criteria and lastly to survey the student satisfaction towards the video program. Samples were 30 sophomore students in Home Economics Technology under Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon in semester 2/ 2557 which were assigned to the study by simple random sampling method. The instruments used in the study were lesson assessment teaching- skill assessment and questionnaires. The data were analyzed by descriptive and inferential statistics. The study results revealed that overall both of video quality and the content were very good having mean of 4.64 and 4.51 respectively. The video program’s efficiency was 93.83/90.69 higher than 80/80 efficiency criterion. And the students satisfaction on video program was good having mean of 4.32

At present a problem found in the soft candy producing process in the food producing department of Company Case Study is time-consuming roller washing process due to an ineffective washing process. A roller is washed one by one from a total of 10 roller (a set) in one machine. As a result the operation rates of other producing processes have been forced to delay. The objective of this research is to resolve the problem found in the process of roller washing by designing a machine for washing a set of roller per time. The research begins from examining design concepts of roller washing machine from patents and the current quantity of water and stream used for washing before conducting design of a new soft candy type roller washer machine. And eventually the efficiency of new roller washer machine is compared with current one. The findings indicate that the newly developed design can reduce washing period from 24.48 minutes/set to 5.56 minutes/set and increase operation time by 18.92 minutes or accounting for 77.28 percent. Meanwhile water quantity used in the process is reduced from 124.82 liters/set to 28.35 liters/set and stream quantity used in the process is also contracted from 0.83 kilogram/hour/set to 0.18 kilogram/hour/set. This reduction can save expenses equal to 28795 baht/year. As the budget for making new roller washer machine is 53000 baht and payback period is only 1.84 year.

The objective of this research is to improve for material procurement decision support making process by using Lean Concept. The research methodology studied purchasing procurement and whole of production in local country of case study by making Value Streaming Mapping (VSM) calculated of production standard time set buffer time kept inventory and suitable supplier’s capacity. Finally used all data for design and develop computer program into support analyze and follow up delivery goods system to customer. Result of research found this new development program could increase delivery goods to customer efficiency by response with material preparation can improved average On Time Delivery rate at 94.55% and increased productivity from 966 to 1125 pcs/day; therefore case study had well increased local purchasing procurement efficiency reduced purchasing cost to 2.27 million Baht/month reduce Fuel cost at 46225.08 Baht/year on average and reduce greenhouse gas at 4.117 TonCo2e per year on average. They can support highly competitive and rapidly changing of electrical and electronics industrial to sustainable in the further.

This research aimed to transfer the participatory rice parachute innovation for rice entrepreneur group by using principles of KM: Knowledge Management in Action in Community (Action Research). Forty people of Uttraradit Province were purposively sampled to participate in five phases of the activities. The first activity was the Education of Knowledge the second activity was the Knowledge Work Rally the third activity was the Cooperative Work Shop the fourth activity was the Mind Mapping Work Shop and the fifth activity was the Evaluation Program. Statistics used in data analysis was descriptive statistics and qualitative information was analyzed by using content analysis method. The information was calculated by percentage mean ( ) and standard deviation (S.D.). Most of the samples were male with the age ranged from 41-50 years. Most farmers were married and their educational level was between Primary 4 and Primary 6. The average household labor amount for rice parachute agricultural practice was four people. Their experiences regarding to the rice parachute innovations were less than three years but 73.5 percent of them were interested in the innovations. Most of them were members of the agriculturist groups followed by the members of Bank for Agriculture and Agricultural Cooperatives. Most of them were farmers who have learned the innovations regarding termite soil grinder soil sprinkler and rice-seeder. As for the overall satisfaction towards KM: Knowledge Management in Action in Community most of them had the highest level of satisfaction and understanding with mean of = 4.56 SD= 0.49. In conclusion the participatory innovation transfer project by providing the know-how to the communities using the KM Principle: Knowledge Management in Action in Community was at the highest satisfactory level.
