The main objective of this articipatory research was to study technology ransfer process for producing granule organic fertilizer in Nongkrathum community using qualitative and semi-experimental methodology. The main instruments consisted of interview questionnaire and training. The samples and key informants were farmers and technology instructors. Data analysis and synthesis involved content and inductive analysis fundamental statistical analysis and Wilcoxon Sign-Rank test. Results showed that the technology transfer process was divided into three stages: 1) Knowledge and persuasion stage 2) Decision stage and 3) Implementation stage which included 2 training sessions. Only eight of farmers could participate in both training sessions. The total mean scores of satisfaction in technology were at moderate level ( =3.28) before training and very high level ( =4.25) after training. Regarding expectation of utilizing the technology before training 62.5% of farmers had high expectation. However 87.5% of the farmers had a very high expectation after training. Comparison of expectations before and after training showed significant differences at the level of .05.

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.
