Additionally, the government sometimes initiates activities in the area without considering the actual needs of the community. These activities also lack continuity, and the training techniques used for capacity building are ineffective. Furthermore, the development of local resources is unsystematic, with merely a few collaborative networks. These issues stem from the lack of integrated planning for area development.</p> <p>The research indicated that the agri-tourism network needs to prioritize collaboration, focusing on development of tourism personnel, community products, tourist attractions, and facilities. It is crucial to connect with all relevant stakeholders, including government agencies, the private sector, the public, communities, and educational institutions, so that their participation is included in these development efforts. This involves organizing training programs to enhance skills and capabilities in tourism management, promoting value addition from community resources to products and services, delivering positive experiences to tourists, and fostering community participation as a model for agri-tourism management.</p> <p>Furthermore, it was determined that developing appropriate capacity-building models for network partners is also essential. The development of the agri-tourism network’s capacity in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya province still faces challenges related to several mechanisms, including the people, resources, and management system used to drive the network.</p> 2024-09-18T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Journal of Liberal Art of Rajamangala University of Technology Suvarnabhumi https://so03.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/art/article/view/279162 INNOVATION TO IMPROVE THE EFFICIENCY OF AGRICULTURAL MACHINERY PRODUCTION SYSTEMS THROUGH COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION 2024-07-23T18:18:06+07:00 Sorapong Kheawyuong odinclub2@gmail.com Samphan Suksai samphan.s@rmutsb.ac.th Sompong P้hipatakesakul sompong.ke@rmutsb.ac.th Rujika Thammalaksamee samphan.s@rmutsb.ac.th Naputr Gewnak samphan.s@rmutsb.ac.th <p> This research aimed to: 1.

An aggressive WCP allows businesses to generate profits from short-term capital sources but poses risks in timely short-term debt repayment. Determination of WCP involves various factors. Previous studies found that the risk level of the working capital policy is solely determined by the financial ratio, overlooking other contributing factors. This research aimed to enhance the coverage of risk dimensions in setting the risk level of WCP by introducing a clustering technique to determine the WCP risk level. The study population consisted of 213 companies listed on the Market for Alternative Investment (MAI). A specific sampling method was employed, focusing on companies within the industrial sector registered on the MAI. This study utilized panel data by gathering financial ratio data from the STATA database and executive position data (CEO, President) through the annual report Form 56-2 from the SEC database. Data collection spanned 15 consecutive years, from 2008 to 2022, divided into two periods: the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak and the non-pandemic period, which resulted in a total of 432 observations. The hierarchical clustering analysis technique was utilized, followed by K-means cluster analysis and one-way ANOVA robustness checks. The results revealed that the working capital investment policy (WCIP) could be categorized into three sub-groups: risky, moderate, and conservative. The working capital financing policy (WCFP) could be classified into two sub-groups: risky and conservative. K-means clustering analysis for risk levels identified two groups: a risky and a conservative WCP. One-way ANOVA analysis for group differentiation indicated three sub-groups for both policies.</p> 2024-09-18T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Journal of Liberal Art of Rajamangala University of Technology Suvarnabhumi
