Agriculture sector consist of 2 sectors

Sector A : Agriculture, hunting and forestry

Agriculture


Growing Crop

Main crop in Thailand• Paddy• Rubber• Sugarcane• Cassava• Maize• Palm bean• Fruits and vegetables• Others


Value added = Gross Output – Intermediate Cost

Growing Crop

GO GO = Q of Crop x Ex-farm Price= Q of Crop x Ex-farm Price

IC IC = IC/Area x planted area = IC/Area x planted area


Agriculture services


Planted area:

GO = Planted area x service render price

IC = ratio from Input-output table x related price index


Agriculture services


Harvested area:

GO = Harvested area x service render price

IC = ratio from Input-output table x related price index


Livestock farming

• Cattle• Swine• Poultry• Poultry’s products such as egg • Dairy products



Livestock farming

GO GO = Q of livestock x Ex-farm = Q of livestock x Ex-farm PricePrice

Q of livestock are the net increase Q of livestock are the net increase inin

livestock arising from domestic livestock arising from domestic production.production.

Q of livestock = Ending stock -Q of livestock = Ending stock -Beginning stock + slaughtering Beginning stock + slaughtering number + export - importnumber + export - import


Forestry and loggingMain activities• Logging covers the output of teak,

yang and other timber.

• Forest product; the main product is firewood and charcoal.


Forestry and loggingLoggingValue added = Gross Output – Intermediate cost

GO = confiscated timber x ex-forest price

IC = production cost from Forestry Industry Organization


Forestry and loggingfirewood and charcoalValue added = Gross Output – Intermediate cost

GO of firewood and charcoal is calculated from the value of firewood and charcoal usage both domestic and export.

IC applied from I-O table ratio


Coverage

Fishing can be divided into 2 activities;

1. Marine fishing2. Fresh water fishing

Fishing


Compilation

1. Marine fishing

GO = Output of fish and fishing yields from marine fishing from Department of Fishery report

IC from survey reported by Department of Fishery report

Fishing


Compilation

2. Fresh water fishing and farming

GO = Output of fresh water fish from Department of Fishery report

IC from I-O Table and survey reported by Department of Fishery report

Fishing
