The skill and knowledge development course lasted 4 days and 3 nights and then the participants applied the gained knowledge at self-reliance centers for the subsequent 4-6 months. Overall, the development course yielded success with the efficiency of knowledge output of 88.94 / 83.22. The effectiveness index was 0.7178 which explained the resource leader’s higher knowledge 71.78%. Participants of the project who have a farm area of approximately 1-3 rais had a substantial debt reduction and were able to generate income from harvesting phak waan pah for 6-8 months per year. The farmers are able to get 150-200 Baht per kilogram of phak waan pah and have an earning potential of over 100,000 baht per year.
