ace Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Beef cattle if there's any variety that can take the heat (not buffalo) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willyumiii Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Beef cattle if there's any variety that can take the heat (not buffalo) This is done very successfully ( both beef and dairy ) at Farm Choke Chai, south of Korat. Worth a visit, a tour and a fantastic,( but expensive) steak dinner if you are in the area! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slapout Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 I always thought turnips would be a crop to consider, in the north, during the 'winter''. Chiang Mai has enough of a farang population that that potential market is there, and if that does not work, they could be sold for cattle, horses, and pig feed/snacks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kickstart Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 I always thought turnips would be a crop to consider, in the north, during the 'winter''. Chiang Mai has enough of a farang population that that potential market is there, and if that does not work, they could be sold for cattle, horses, and pig feed/snacks To long a growing season ,and they like water ,ok if water available ,would have to be a farang variety,imported seed I would say the fungal diseases / insects would finish them off. In the uk they use to be a autumn /winter feed for cattle and sheep I would think CM not cool enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
