Since Thailand's agroindustrial sector is a remarkable success story, the Thai Government must tread a difficult path to ensure that its intervention in this sector does not destroy an already efficient system. The purpose of this report is to contribute to the current debate concerning government role in agroindustry. While the coverage of the report is very broad, the report does not intend to offer a complete analysis of the agroindustrial sector. The primary focus of the report is to analyze how agroindustrial growth could be increased, and to indicate what role, if any, the Government should play in this process. As a consequence, the report discusses the main problems encountered by agribusiness in research, production, processing and marketing only to the extent that the Government has a role to play in addressing them.
