Agricultural garden beside irrigation canal

Today is good wether There will be a tropical depression from the South China Sea to Thailand, according to morning weather reports. Today is not hot weather. Usually in Thailand in the equatorial zone. It is a tropical zone type. Even now, it is in the rainy season. Heavy rain, but still sunny in the daytime. It is a good auspicious. I drived a motorbike, travel, collect pictures, representmy house what are ?

I travel through irrigation canals. Around is almost all agricultural garden. I Take many pictures for the reader to see my neighborhood.

I am Khon Buri people. You try to find my location from the google map. It is very lucky that Khonburi district has a large dam. Named Lam Sae Dam and Moonbon Dam. Both dams are adjacent. This dam has been a long-term source of agriculture before I was born. But 2012 The main city of Nakhon Ratchasima shortage of tap water. Lack of water production resources. It is a policy to bring water from Khon Buri dam into Nakhon Ratchasima for tap water by a total distance of 90 kilometers.

If you can not bring fresh water from both dams of Khonburi to Korat city.  Korat City lacks fresh water for tap water production. Because Korat has no land next to the sea. The rapid expansion of Korat city. Dense population in downtown. The construction of large department stores including The Mall , Terminal 21, Central

Khon Buri city is full of mountains and forests. Forest area next to Khao Yai forest. This is a good source of water. Water from dams is used in agriculture and sugar factory, Cassava starch factory. In the past 60 years ago, at the end of the century, was the source of Communist escapes. This is the name of the communist forest.

The consequence of the large dams is that it results a water delivery system. It produces large irrigation for agriculture such as rice, cassava, sugar cane, corn, spices, Thai food. Freshwater fish production. Khon Buri city is naturally abundant. Even in the dry season, it can be because it is planted because it delivers water throughout the year.

There are also sports activities, jet skiing, boat rafting, and open space for people to relax on holiday.

The route of irrigation starts from a large canal first and then discharges into a small canal directly into the farmers' orchard. Irrigation canal here is made of all concrete.

Custard apple on line walk rice field

My brother bought an custard apple tree from Pak Chong district , Pet Pak Chong type in 2015. Over the past two years, the apple tree is nearly 200 centimeters tall, so high that it covers my head.
The price is 50 baht per tree. It was so cheap.
At first, my father intended to grow an custard apple tree only kind but accident. I planted coconut trees before. My father decided to plant coconut with an custard apple tree.
I'm not sure that the nutrient content of the soil that rice field before that will make it custard apple grow completely.
The results in 2017, the custard apple tree has already fruits.





In the first year my father had to take regular watering for custard apple in the winter and summer. In the rainy season we have natural water already. Do not waste time taking care of any. Only some grasses can be removed, because the weeds in the rainy season are growing rapidly.

After a year, my father watered a few times, even when the weather was hot. Trees can live.

A custard apple fruit weighs 600 grams. I choose the biggest one. I guess with my eyes, I think all branches to be able produce fruit. I forgot to tell you that when my brother bought an custard apple tree He bought custard apple fruit with very large balls together. I tryed to weigh 1 kg 500 g per fruit.

Although my custard fruit that is smaller than that grown from Pak Chong district. I was just happy to my fruit. at least I do not buy custard apple at the supermarket to lose money. At the price of 80 baht per kilo.

When the fruit is full growth , then put it into the box. Curing to heat the fruit. 3-4 days to have a sweet fruit to eat already.
