Abstract

In Thailand, strawberries have been brought into cultivation since 1960 by His Majesty King Rama IX with the objective to replace opium cultivation and develop the living standards of hill tribe in the northern area. First strawberry was successfully growth by 1972 and introduced to local growers as a replacement crop. After that, the Royal Project and Kasetsart University have brought in newer cultivars; Number 329 (yael), Pharachatan number 50 (B5), 60 (Rosa Linda × Tochiotome), 70 (Toyonoka), 72 (Tochiotome), and 80 (hybrid) to replace the older due to their many advantages. Currently, strawberries are considered as a high-value crop with the highest unit price among Thai economic crops.
