Potentials and Suggestions for the Development of High-Quality Beef Industry in Thailand

Abstract:

This study focuses on potentials for development of high-quality beef industry in Thailand by reviewing information from various sources such as articles and web pages, including interviewing beef processors. We describe a situation of beef in ASEAN countries, demonstrated a beef supply chain and situation of high-quality beef in Thailand. Potentials and suggestion for development of high-quality beef industry are presented. This study shows that Thailand has potential for development of high-quality beef industry for exporting to ASEAN countries. However, there are problems in the supply chain regarding cattle farming, and food quality and safety need to be improved.
