The late Great King Bhumibol Adulyadej of Thailand initiated the Royal Rainmaking Project in 1955. His interest in artificial rainmaking stemmed from concerns about drought and its impact on Thai farmers. He developed and refined cloud-seeding techniques, which led to the first successful artificial rainmaking operation in 1969. Over the years, his efforts resulted in the "Royal Rainmaking Technology," which became internationally recognized.
