snoop1130 Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 The canal, which begins at Nakhon Nayok River and lays along Rangsit-Nakhon Nayok Street through Pathum Thani to Chao Phraya River, turns into bright yellow color every season-changed period, due to the pesticides and a few other types of toxic chemicals used by farmers, Mr. Chalit Tongmanee, Chairman of Office of Nakhon Nayok Provincial Farmers Council, said it is impossible for Thai agriculturists to success in organic farming as all-natural water resources are contaminated. From their part, farmers stated that they cannot stop using chemicals in their farms and gardens due to the lack of organic supplies and the requirements for agricultural products, especially fruits. -- © Copyright A24 News Agency 2021-08-23 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow ASEAN NOW on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misterwhisper Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Thank you, Nakhon Nayok "agriculturists", for openly admitting that you are not only systematically poisoning the environment but also an entire nation of consumers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im surprised any of them even bother, its just not worth it anymore, most land by me is now jungle where once it was all farmed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meechai Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 (edited) This is why I always smile at all the Vegans that come to Thailand & say so much healthy fruits & veggies it is like paradise. Yet they live in Chiang Mai & such & have never been to a village & watched the farming Lastly this river of yellow is not the worst of it. Most villagers have their own shallow well for water which lies only 2-3 meters below the surface Guess what seeps into that?
