Risk Factor Affecting Thai Sweet Corn Supply Chain Performance for Export: Case Study of Upper Northern Thailand
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
Thailand has high potential for agricultural production and export. Especially, in the norther area, there were the highest sweet corn production and manufacture in Thailand from 2016-2018; however, since 2019, they were decreasing. Hence, the research about risk factors affecting Thai sweet corn supply chain for export is necessary. The research objectives are 1) to study risk factors affecting Thai sweet corn supply chain performance and 2) to test the differences of the factors affecting Thai sweet corn supply chain performance’s impact. The data were collected from 200 Thai sweet corn entrepreneurs in 8 Thai upper northern provinces from purposive sampling by questionnaires analyzed by Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modeling: PLS-SEM with SmartPLS 3. The results significantly showed the atmospheric risks, the biological and environmental risks, the logistics and infrastructural risks, the supply risks, and the demand risks respectively. The results from the research can be further beneficial to develop policy, innovation and technology to solve risks and problems in Thai sweet corn supply chain for enhancing export competitiveness accurately and effectively.
