While speaking at the opening of the Thailand Green Livestock Expo 2013 on Thursday, Agriculture and Cooperatives Minister Yukol Limlamthong said that Thailand had begun implementing several strategies designed to combat the effects of global warming.
The details of these plans, however, remain somewhat vague, at least according to a report from the National News Agency of Malaysia.
Yukol boasted of how the Thai government would leverage more arable farmland for the production of alternative energy crops and how a government database would help the Department reach its “green agriculture” targets.
A rezoning of farmlands, set for completion later this month, was also listed amongst the Thai government’s green agriculture initiatives.
Yukol did not mention any metrics employed to track the efficacy of these programs, or their explicit goals.
