Exclusive Summary VII
Project Feasibility Study of Kaset Popeang Company
Exclusive Summary
Kaset Popeang Shop Project is to study the feasibility for opening an
agricultural supply shop. Agriculture industry is chosen because it is one of the largest
industries in Chiang Rai, with wide range of market, most areas in Chaing Rai are used
for agriculture. Therefore, there is a high demand for agriculture supply in Chiang Rai.
In the market of agriculture, it have growth up a good rate every years, from the data
Chiang Rai have agriculture as the main business (31.03%).
The shop sells agricultural equipments and supplies, including, seed, fertilizer,
insecticides and equipment of agriculture in which each shop always sell many brands
of product for customers to choose and make a decision easily.
Kaset Popeang’s market position is to differentiate from other shops by
providing a higher level of service to customers and the variety of products. The
company’s vision is to create the best relationships with customer by providing best
services and products, and to be the one stop agricultural shop on the northern part of
Thailand. We will have a training course to train our employee before providing service
to customer and use differentiate service to attract customer. We will have club to be a
center of agricultural knowledge which customers could come to share the knowledge
for improving efficiently their farm. Agricultural products will be the good quality of
product in which we deal directly to supplier. We will provide a variety of agricultural
products that we also provide after sale service to respond market need. We will have an
annual festival for customer in which this festival is collecting donation in order to buy
some agricultural products to give needy farmer. We are willing to taking care customer
as the same as they are family.
For environment analysis, in social dimension, most people in Chiang Rai are
agriculturists, so there are many customers to the shop. In technology dimension, as
agricultural technology is continuously developing, the shop has to consider new
technology in agricultural industry, to be the first-mover in this business. In economic
dimension, the demand of agricultural product is not very stable because it depends on
many uncontrollable factors, such as the climate and government policy. However, from
the recent years, from the climate change, the demand for rice and sticky rice is
Exclusive Summary VIII
Project Feasibility Study of Kaset Popeang Company
increasing. In political dimension, at the present, government is strongly supporting
agriculture; this directly benefits the shop as agriculturists are the customers.
Analyzing the competitors, we have studied the agricultural supply shop in the
area, there are six main competitors, and other small shops. Udompan and Lor
Rungruang are two big shops that have been running for a long time with big customer
base; we consider these two shops to have a high market share. The five other shops,
including Kittipan, Tiyajakon, Junjaruan and Thai Damrong, are medium size shops
which provide not many kinds of supply. The other small shops, including, Tae Song
Guang, Tai Hong Seng, and Permpon, are considered having low market share.
According to interviewing of entrepreneur, the main competition in agricultural
shop is price and service. Price is factor that customers are going to concern first before
make a decision buying so agricultural shop around Mae Chan, they try to make lower
price to compete with competitor. In addition, agricultural shops try to catch a customer
by competition on providing information of product, help them to solve their problems,
give them with good quality of product and price that appropriate with them. It is good
to make a relationship with customer.
The market customers are divided to two segments, customer who are
agriculturists and use the products, and customers who buy the product to sell to others.
Our target is the agriculturists who use the product.
The marketing mix strategy of the company, for products and services, the shop
provide variety of agricultural equipments and supplies, such as insecticide sprayer,
lawn mower, feed pump, and so on. As for the services, the company provides high
service level including, call center service, delivery service, repairing and maintaining
service, and expert advisory service. For place, the location of the shop is in Mae Chan
that can cover the customers from many line of agriculturist such as Mae Chan, Mae
Sai, Chiang Saen, Nang Lae and hill tribe. Our company is the passing line to go into
town center or fresh market so, it is the opportunity that there are many our target pass
our company.For price, because our company is base on quality of service, so our
products are set up price on reasonable price but it is to be similar or a little bit more
than competitors. The price is standard for every customer but its divide by volume of

order and fluctuate cost of product each seasoning too. For promotion, our
communication mixes are dividing into 4 parts: Advertising, Sales Promotion, Event

Our business is an agricultural shop, with products such as chemical fertilizer and
agricultural equipments, such as insecticide sprayer, lawn mower, feed pump, and so on. The
name of the shop is Kaset Popeang Shop. The shop will take the products directly from
vendors for fertilizer and other agricultural equipments, then provide to the customers and
also sell to group of small shop retailers.
The shop is located in Mae Chan, because Mae Chan is the passing route to Chiang
Saen, Mae Sai, and Nang Lae. Our target market is agriculturists in the area of Mae Chan,
Chiang Saen, Mae Sai, and Nang Lae.

Chapter 2: Industry Profile
This chapter contains detailed information of agriculture industry and its current
situation. Another part is information of the business, including its product and service,
vision, mission, and the strategy of the company.
2.1 Nature of Industry
Agriculture is the occupation in which is most extensive throughout the world, by
42% of global labor is agricultural. However, the quantity of agricultural products still has
not reached 5% of Gross World Product (GWP).
Thailand has been developing, however, the main occupation for Thailand is still
agriculture, and the main revenue of the country comes from exporting agricultural products.
In the past, agriculture required a lot of man labor, and it depended on the nature to decide the
period of doing agricultural activity. In the present time, agriculture is highly developed, to
increase the product quantity and to reduce the cultivation time.
From the information collected from Chiang Rai Provincial Agricultural Extension
Office, we can observe that in Mae chan district, the area is massively used for agriculture,
approximately 98,000 rai (156,800 km2) in total. Cultivation requires some equipments and
chemicals, such as fertilizer, insecticide, stimulator, lawn mower, lift pump and water pipe,
chemical sprayer, and other agricultural equipments. This makes agricultural shops grow
continuously. The business is interesting and it also includes of livestock industry.
According to Department of Agricultural Extension, the season of growing rice has two
periods in which is in-season rice and off-season rice. It means that In-season rice starts on
April until August, farmers are going to prepare the field to grow then they will buy
insecticide, fertilizer, and agricultural equipments.
Chapter 2: Industry Profile 8
Project Feasibility Study of Kaset Popeang Company
Table 1: Cultivation Period
Note: Agricultural department
Off-season rice starts on October until May in which farmers are spending more
money than in-season because it is not season that there is enough water for growing.
Farmers need to buy agricultural equipments for help them such as water pump, fertilizer and
so on. The season of growing corn is starting on May until November that farmers also buy
insecticide, fertilizer, agricultural equipments before this season.
In order to open an agricultural shop, it requires high investment. Agricultural
equipments are rather high price, and the equipments are manifold, making it difficult for a
shop to provide all equipment available for customers. It will also require large area for doing
the business and store the inventory. The business operators are required to have wide
knowledge for agricultural equipments, for they can explain how to use the equipments and
know when to stock which inventory at the period, and know which brands and which models
are popular or has best sale. The target market of the shop will include customers for
agriculture, livestock, and fishery. This market is large and there are still few shops to supply
the need. In addition, the return or profit is rather high.
2.2 Situation of Industry
At the present, the global demand for rice is approximately 417.7 ton. Thailand is the
country that exports most rice in the world, with the export rate of 36%, followed by Vietnam
with 20%, India 18%, USA 14%, and Pakistan 12%, respectively. The world has high
demand for rice, due to natural disaster in which has made rice become inadequate in many

countries, and needed for import. This makes the price of rice become higher, and many
people are more interested in agriculture.
Chiang Rai has 1,255,387 populations, GPP for the year 2006 is 50,093 million baht,
increased from the last year by 9.38%, and revenue per person is 38,332 baht per year. Main
business is agriculture (31.03%), followed by whole seller and retailer (18.76%), industry
(3.98%), construction (3.81%), hotel and restaurant (2.72%), respectively. The province’s
trading system depends on international trading. The most important trading partner for
Chiang Rai is China, followed by Myanmar and Laos. Main export products are; agricultural
products, dried longan, grocery, gasoline, tire, construction materials, cars, food and
beverage, and medicine, respectively. Main import products are; agricultural products,
vegetables, apples, pears, fried onions, lumber, grocery, blanket, vehicles and equipments,
machines and equipments, lignite, respectively.
From the information above, we can see that Chiang Rai of main occupation is
agriculturist, which is 31.03% of the population, and it tends to grow more, by the increase of
price on agricultural products. Chiang Rai of economy is in good direction, even effected
with adverse factors such as the increased price on gasoline or the instability of Dollar, due to
sub-prime problem. This will be the growth in the main economic dimension of the province,
including agricultural dimension by the increased in production, and the growing rate of
agricultural product involving alternative energy production. However, in April 2009 there is
a decrease in growth rate, comparing with the same period of the last year. Considered from
the accumulate production of rice, which is decreased by 10%. It is the effect from a decrease
in off-season rice from bad climate, plus the decrease in demand for rice. This made the price
of rice decreased, and agriculturists turn to other cultivars, such as cassava, pineapple, soil
bean, corn, sweet corn, etc. In additional, the production of corn in this month has decreased
by 54.4%, as a result of decreasing in corn price, making agriculturists reduce the area for
growing corn. In contrast, the perspective of other industries in April 2009 has only a slice
increase, when comparing with the same period last year, considering from industry
dimension, the amount of factories has increased by 0.8%, the licensing and the amount of
labor has increased by 0.3% and 2.5%, respectively. However, for hospitality and tourism
industry, the growth rate has decreased. Hotel industry has decreased by 20%, amount of
passengers in airports has decreased by 20.7%, due to the instability of the situation in the
country.

According to Office of agricultural Economics says that trend of agricultural product
is increasing 5% to 6% in 2553. As figure 2 and 3, the price of agricultural has been
increasing from 2550 to 2552. It is a good signal that Agriculturist trends to crop rice and
corn than the last year. Moreover, government launches policy that support agricultural
outcome by guarantee the price and the economics of world start to be better also. Those of
factor will affect to Growth rate of our company that the total sale may be increasing 5% of
each year.

2.6.1 Corporate Level
In corporate level, we decide to use two strategies that will help our company to be as
the vision of company by use Concentric Diversification Strategy and Market Penetration
Strategy. Both of strategy has specific unique that we think it could push the company to be
success in market. There are two reason that why we use those strategy to compete with
competitors. The first reason, we use Concentric Strategy to make our company differentiate
with competitors in term of service and product. The second reason, we are a new shop on
the market and any competitors have their own customer already so Market Penetration is the
answer to get customer know us by using communications mix and gain market share from
competitors.
The concentric diversification strategy that our company uses, that means the firm
could leverage its technical know-how to gain some advantage, another meaning is the firm
launch new products that is related with the same as firm ever did. So our company chooses
this strategy because we need to provide variety agricultural products to customer that each
product will response need of customer. We plan to have consulting service to serve and
suggest information in order to farm who has problem about their agriculture by expert. It
means that our company has agricultural shop and consulting service.
Market penetration occurs when a company enters a market with current products and
the same market with competitor, the communications mix is used to gain market share from
competitors. We are using Advertising via Television, Local Radio and word of mouth to get
attraction of customer. Actually, most of agriculturists have watched a television and listened
a local radio, which should be our target market and word of mouth usually is used when our
company would like customer trust in company. However, word of mouth is not costly for
new company but it is very effective to attract customers.
2.6.2 Business Level
In business level, we use differentiate strategy to create new service for getting more
profit. As this business, if we would like to create difference products, it is quite hard. A lot
Chapter 2: Industry Profile 14
Project Feasibility Study of Kaset Popeang Company
of shop is the same product lines which obtain from any supplier. So we think the way to
make competitive advantage to compete with competitor, it is using differentiate strategy. We
will concern more on service that information is collected. However, our company got an
opportunity that the existing agricultural shop does not have enough services to fulfill
customer need. The service that we are talking, it is consulting service for agriculturist which
we are going to help agriculturists in order to increase agricultural products. For example, if
agriculturist could harvest vegetable 20 kilogram per farm, we are going to help increasing
quantity of vegetable up to 30 kilogram per farm by sending experts on fieldwork.
2.6.3 Function Level
Functional level strategy compose of human resource management, logistic
management, inventory management, and marketing management. These strategies are
supporting the strategy in business level.
Human Resource Management
The report says that this Human resource management has responsible for hiring the
best employees and training employees in order to provide a good service. Human resource
functional will concern about employment process. First of all, when applicants is coming to
apply the job. They have to do the questionnaires which is related with their service
perspective. The questionnaires can evaluate applicants which they have a good view about
service or not, it will affect to provide a service to customer when applicants are employed.
In addition, after applicants pass for the questionnaires test. The next step is checking
profile or background of applicants that if applicants are going to be our employee, they need
to have all the job qualification that company want to be. However, employees still need to
get the training session to improving service quality and it is the way that prepares employees
before going to provide service with customers. All employees are trained to improve a
knowledge about agriculture include process of cultivate any plant, which fertilizer is
appropriate with plant, how to eliminate insect and so on.
Moreover, according to Donald Kirkpatrick who is Professor Emeritus of the
University of Wisconsin in North America and a past president of the American Society for
Chapter 2: Industry Profile 15
Project Feasibility Study of Kaset Popeang Company
Training and Development (ASTD). He published a book “Evaluating training programs”
which this book says that there are four levels of Kirkpatrick's evaluation model essentially
measure:
Reaction - what they thought and felt about the training
Learning - the resulting increase in knowledge or capability
Behavior - extent of behavior and capability improvement and implementation
Results - the effects on the business or environment resulting from the
trainee's performance
It is tool which company is using to evaluate the employees after training session. As
you can see from the figure below, this is a whole process that Human Resource functional
concern about employee and customer who will got a good service from our company.

service to customer by repairer. This functional has to manage the distribution product to
customer which is very important thing. All agricultural products are sent to customer’s
house excluding on hill or another country by using pick-up which has a good driver who
know the map of Chiang Rai.
When customers get a problem about product that it might break, customer can take it
to our company and the breaked product will be fixed by our repairer.
In addition, purchasing products also are responsibility of logistic management and
control process of transportation from supplier to warehouse. Our company is using
outsourcing transportation company to help us for example, Nim See Seng Company that is
the one of big transportation company on northern part of Thailand.
Inventory Management
This functional is controlling inventory in warehouse that mean there will be products
to provide the customer all the time and can manage inventory that has less damage as much
as possible. It would help to reduce cost also. Inventory manager has to collaborate with
logistic manage by sending the number of inventory in warehouse and advising to logistic
manage when the inventory need to refulfill.
Moreover, the arrangement of inventory is also main point that has to concern. the
warehouse are separated space following kind of product which some product needs more
space to put it or some product need shelves to arrange it. The FIFO process is request
because the agricultural product has expiration date which products come to warehouse first,
those products will sell first also.
Marketing Management
Marketing functional has responsibility to do marketing effort, which attract to
customer via communication mix. As our company concern about the variety of products and
service quality, that is our advantage to compete with existing competitors and is barrier to
new entre competitors.
Chapter 2: Industry Profile 17
Project Feasibility Study of Kaset Popeang Company
Communication mixes that we use to promote our company which has Advertising,
Sales promotion, Event and Experiences, and Public relations. Those communication mixes
are supporting positioning of our company. Advertising is first step to send message to
contact the customers, our company are using leaflet for first three month. The leaflets are
distributed at fresh market of Mae Chan and in front of Department of Agricultural Extension
where located at Muang, Chiand Rai. After that, Chiang Sean and Mae Sai market are the
next place to distribute leaflet. Moreover, posters will stick on around our company and
around market of Mae Chan, Mae Sai, and Chiang Sean. Those places are crowded.
Agriculturists usually come to market in the morning to buy some food and tack it to home.
However, our company is using local radio also to promote us. The local radio is still
favorite for local people. as you can see that some business launch the advertisement via
radio, the benefit of using radio is; It is can spread to promote our company larger than
leaflets or poster. It is not expansive when compare with efficient. Another reason,
agriculturists usually listen radio during working.
The sales promotion is a tool that our company uses for increasing sale. The special
price and delivery service is offered to customer. There will be special price for customers
who buy large size of our product. Moreover, our company has a free delivery service if
customers buy products more than 3,000 baht and the destination is not far from our company
or it is not more than 10 kilometers.
The event & experiences and Public relation is way to make strong bran, which is
using training course for employee, expert advice service and join Chiang Rai fair. Our
company will train employee before provide service directly to customers, our employee
need to have knowledge about agricultural such as which fertilizer is appropriate with that
plant, how to use agricultural equipment and so on. If customer has a problem about
agricultural, they could come to our company which expert will help customer to solve the
problems. In fact, Chiang Rai has a big fair every year that many people go those fair. So it is
opportunity to promote and make customer’s perception. For example, Phor Khun festival.
As our company concern on a quality service. So the special service is provided to
customers, there are call center service, repair & maintain service and after sale service. Our
company would like to take care our customer as they are our family.

Study on agricultural related environment, competitor and customer, to see the
feasibility of the project. Then set the market target and position for the company and set
strategy using STP analysis and marketing mix strategy.
3.1 Market Analysis
According to Kasikorn Research, trend of this business half of end year 2009 economic
world recovered, so agricultural products and food can export good rate include demand from
foreign countries is increase than at begin of the year, and in the market of agriculture have
growth up a good rate every years from the data Chiang Rai that have agricultural is the main
business (31.03%).
3.1.1 General Environment Analysis
Social
According to department of agricultural extension, Chiang Rai has 1,255,387
populations, GPP for the year 2006 is 50,093 million baht, increased from the last year by
9.38%, and revenue per person is 38,332 baht per year. Main business is agriculture (31.03%)
and this year trend unemployed rate higher more than 1,000,000 persons then they will return
to agriculture. The effect from general environment for agriculture is the main factor that
affects agricultural shops, because the main target customers are agriculturists. However, the
perspective of agriculture in April 2009 has a decrease in growth rate cause from climate
change, comparing with the same period of the last year, but end of the year the price of
agriculture products increase 60-70% per ton from 10,000 baht per ton up to 14,500-15,000
baht per ton, and then many people return to do agriculture. This is one of the factors that
directly affect agricultural shops, increase sales from end of the year.
Chapter 3: Market Feasibility Study 20
Project Feasibility Study of Kaset Popeang Company
Technology
For agriculture, technology is essential to cultivation. The technology has been
continuously developing, to decrease the time for processing, and increase convenience for
users. For examples; in the past, harvesting rice required many people to help for the work
and it took a long time, but in the present there are tractors, no need for many people and it is
much faster. So, agricultural shops have to consider new technology in agricultural industry,
to be the first-mover in this business.
Economic
According to Kasikorn Research, in 2010, previous year’s product price is the
motivation for agriculturists to increase the production or change to other products such as
rubber tree or corn. The price of agricultural products is in a good rate, especially the price of
rice and sticky rice, which has increased from last year, due to the increased demand in
export, and competitor countries has been encountering inadequate production problem. rice
and sticky rice quantity in the world decrease from climate change while demand rice and
sticky rice will increase. Philippines is fourth major of export rice reverse to import rice
because the country got impact from nature disaster while quantity of rice and sticky rice will
increase that it opportunity of Thailand can export rice and sticky rice more than last year. In
contrast Thailand have to concern about climate change and policy of government then
Chiang Rai is considered an area with optimal climate for cultivation, with sufficient rain and
good soil; it can increase the agricultural production. However, this depends on the climate
for each year.
Political
At the present, government is strongly supporting agriculture. For examples, the
government provides policy to guarantee higher price for rice, get provincial agricultural
extension offices to make strategy for protection system to agriculturists’ risks by managing
to reduce the risks for agriculturists from disasters. Moreover, there are issues on adjusting
product prices and other projects that provincial agricultural extension offices will provide.
We can see that the government is continuously supporting agriculture. Economic breakdown
is one of the problems that affect agriculturists and shops. The gasoline issue has intensive
Chapter 3: Market Feasibility Study 21
Project Feasibility Study of Kaset Popeang Company
effects in the present economic, affecting both agriculturists and business owners. If the
gasoline price is higher, the cost of production will be higher, while the price of agricultural
products is still the same. This will make agriculturists reduce their buying from the shops.
As for the shops, the effect of unstable gasoline price makes the price of equipments change,
making it difficult for the shop to stock the inventory, resulting in lacking of inventory in
stock and insufficient products to satisfy customers. Moreover, this business has to rely on
suppliers. Sometimes if suppliers cannot supply in sufficient amount for the market demand
or send the products late, it will cause the shops to lose their customers.
3.1.2 Competition Analysis
Customer Analysis
Agriculturalist of Mae Chan, Mae Sai, Chiang Saen, has many type of cultivation. For
agriculturalists who cultivate rice, the area of this group is about 232,250 rai. For
agriculturalists who cultivate corn, the area for this group is about 104,846 rai. The area of
agriculturalists who cultivate vegetables, the area of this group is about 4,859 rai. Therefore,
total of agricultural area is about 337,096 rai. From the information show that agriculturalists
in this group has many group of cultivate and each group has a big area for cultivation so
agriculture product need to support their agriculturalists. Customer will cover the area of Mae
Chan, Mae Sai and Chiang Saen so all of this area is the top of cultivation in Chiang Rai.
Some of customer is a small group and buy the product to use only.
Another group is the retailer that buys the product for sell and stock some of product
for gain more profit. Behavior of their customer always buy the product with the shop that
reasonable price, good service and fully of agriculture product so the shop in Mae Chan does
not concern all of these. (From Bureau of Trade and Economic Chiang Rai, 2008)
Behavior of customers who is using agricultural products, Average of using is one
sack per two rai. Moreover, Chemical product is used 1000 cc. to five rai. A one bottle of
chemical product is using for five rai in which a one bottle equals 1000 cc. in addition, Seeds
can grow the whole year, farmers usually grow vegetable plant with main agricultural then
the seeds can sale the whole year. Actually, a one can of seed is 500 gram that a one rai needs
2,000 gram of seed so agriculturist has to buy one can of seed for a one rai. Moreover,
Equipments are used during growing rice & corn that means farmer usually buy Agricultural

equipment such as Sprayer, Farm Pump or Farm Pump and so on. In addition, one
agricultural equipment is bought per one family. However, the life of this product is usually

market shares.
According to interviewing of entrepreneur, the main competition in agricultural shop
is price and service. Price is factor that customers are going to concern first before make a
decision buying so agricultural shop around Mae Chan, they try to make lower price to
compete with competitor. The compete situation of agriculture shop, the shop must adopt to

Note: own Graphic
This project set the segmentation from customers who come to buy the product and
variety of product. The first segmentation is customers who come to buy product, there are
two kind of customer: Firstly, Agriculturist who buy for use by themselves about this
segment is about 31.83% of all economic structure in Chiang Rai or about 15,943 million
Baht since 2550. There are growing rate about 9 to 11% each year and it trends to continue
increasing every year because there are many factor to affect them such as increasing of

to buy product with large size for negotiate to reduce price for sell in the other area about
18.76% of all economic structure in Chiang Rai or about 9,396 million Baht since 2550
include all retailer. There are different buying behavior between agriculturist and retailer.
Next segmentation is about variety of product. Most of all customers need to buy product at
all-in-one company because they no need to spend time to find out products that they want
and increase cost of fuel because nowadays there is fluctuate of fuel price. In addition,
agriculturists need to use every product for agriculture therefore, all-in-one company is the
answer to serve their need all cultivate season. (from interview of Mr. Jarun Lougetragoon,
Chiang-Rai Economic Situation, 2007 - Somapa information technology company,
Conclusion of Chiang-Rai Economic Condition, 2009 – Ministry of Commerce Chiang-Rai.)
3.2.2 Targeting
Figure 8: Targeting of Keset Popeang
Note: Own Graphic
The red area is the target of the company. The target of our company is Agriculturist
because there are growing rate of agriculturist is about 9 to 11% each since 2547 to 2550.
Moreover, It trends to continue increasing every year in which there are many factor to effect
Chapter 3: Market Feasibility Study 34
Project Feasibility Study of Kaset Popeang Company
them such as increasing of agriculture product price, government help agriculturist to
guarantee agriculture product price and increasing of number of knowledge agriculturist who
join seminar of cooperative or student who congratulate form agriculture major.
As the figure 5, This company is market specialization because our products are more
variety and when the customers come to our company they will buy something that they want
but it’s depend on cultivates times and kind of plants. So, this company no need to do
marketing for all market, our company need to promote only one market is about our
company has more variety of product and good quality of service to attract the customers.
This project set up target of agriculturists into two segments.
The major target is farmers who grow rice in Mae Chan, Chiang Saen, and Mae Sai
area. This target is too large because rice is the most products that export to foreign which is
increasing every year about 7% to 10% or about 10,700 to 11,000 million Baht include all
export but major export are agriculture product., and farmer in Mae Chan is about 624
household and there is area for agriculture about 3,503 unit of area. The minor target is the
general agriculturist who plant rubber tree, corn, and so on. Where is in Mae Chan, Chiang
Saen, and Mae Sai area and hill tribe.
All of our targets need to use many our product, so they will comes to our company to
find all of product that they want separate by cultivate season, most of farmer and general
agriculturist like to buy agriculture equipment and chemical fertilizer to prepare for plant
early. Our company can stock our product before cultivate season to sufficiency our target
sales because this segment like to buy with all-in-one shop to save cost of fuel. Moreover, our
products are more variety with reasonable price and our company is passing way to the town
center and market that easy to see our company and suitable for visit our company. But there
is some trouble that most of farmers like to buy agriculture equipment from their cooperative.
This problem is not too hard solution because there is a little agriculture cooperative that not
enough to serve customer and their product is less variety, so this company has many
opportunities to access to our targets. (from interview of Mr. Jarun Lougetragoon, Conclusion
of Chiang-Rai Economic Condition, 2009 – Ministry of Commerce Chiang-Rai.)

Chapter 3: Market Feasibility Study 46
Project Feasibility Study of Kaset Popeang Company
According to interview entrepreneurs, the recorded data shows that trend of fertilizer
& chemical product and agricultural equipment & part is difference. As the figure 13,
agricultural product & part could usually well sale on the first and the end of year. It is
September until February, those months are the period of pre cultivation. Moreover, trend of
fertilizer & chemical product is opposite with the last one. It could usually well sale on
February until June and September until November as the figure 14. On the other hand, our
company forecast that the total sale of the first year is not quite well because there are
existing competitors and actually our company is using communication mixed to attract the
customer in order to buy our products.
Hence, if both trends of sale are combined together, our company could get profit for
the whole year.
As the report said that in chapter of situation of industry, price of agricultural outcome
has been increasing every year such as rice and corn. It is reasons in which if price of
agricultural outcome is quite good, the agriculturist trend to crop that more plant. In addition,
agriculturists need to buy fertilizer, seed or equipment in order to prepare next seasoning of
crop. Our expected of growth rate is 3% to 8%, that related with situation in each year.
According to information above, our market share compares with competitor in which
is 18%, therefore, our company get 30,339 sacks per round and there are two seasoning for
crop. It is 60,678 sacks per years in all market volume of fertilizers. In addition, the volume
of chemical product is 24,620 units that are sold in the first year. Chiang rai has 4,859 rai for
vegetable in which is not including rice or corn. Therefore, the market volume of seed is
3,499 units

3.6 Conclusion
At the present, agriculture is becoming more popular and easier for people to do; there are
many technologies that help agriculturist to farm easier and faster. So it does not require
many people to do farming. In addition, government tries to guaranty price of crops in order
to help agriculturist. That is good signal in which is for our shop also. In contrast, agricultural
products are still necessary of the world, every people have to eat vegetables and crops.
Therefore, Seed, Equipments of agriculture and whatever of agriculture stuffs could still sell
in market.
As information from interviewing of entrepreneurs, the company gets many segment
of customer but the company chooses two segments in which are appropriate with our shop.
Our position is on best service and provides variety of products to customer. In 4’Ps, our shop
will catch customer by using communication mixed. Our price is reasonable price that offered
to every customer. Our company will sell general agricultural products as the same with
competitors. However, in term of product & service, which have difference service for
providing customer that is helping customer increase crops. The location of our shop is on
intersection road where target customers are around Mae Chan, Mae Sai, and Chiang Saen.
In sale forecast, our company forecast the revenue and expense from number of
agriculturist in targeting market and area of cultivate. Our sale is related with seasoning of
crop, when the agriculturists are during cultivating, the number of sale’s fertilizer is high. On
the other hand, the number of sale’s agricultural equipment could sell before cultivating. The
growth rates of our company analysis that comparing with trend of agricultural outcome’s
price. If the price of agricultural outcome is increasing, the number of sale on agricultural
product will increase also. Moreover, as our company is new entry, the customers do not
know us as well. Therefore, marketing communication mixed is used in order to attract
customers that make them to know and recognize our company such as radio, sale promotion,
event and gift.
We forecast sale estimate in five years, the accumulate sale is approximate
20,000,000 baht in five years. We think first two years our product could not sale as much as
our expected, but after two years, our sale has been increasing higher. We would not give
credit to customers because the risk is high to sell by credit.

Project Feasibility Study of Kaset Popeang Company
5.4 Project Analysis
Payback Period
As we can see above, payback period of Kaset Popeang is 2.83 years. It means that
Kaset Popeang will get money back from investment, which use two years and ten months. It
is good signal on comparing with the cost of investment that company invests.
IRR
As the ratio shows above, internal rate of return is 20% that means how high interest
rates would have to go in order to "wipe out" the value of this investment. This case, our
company could bear in order to raise interest rate up to 20%.
Payback Period = Cost of Project
Average Annual Income
= 20,000,000
7,055,179

6.1 Risk Management
Agricultural is the main occupancy for Thailand, but it is one of the businesses that
can be affected by many factors. Selling agricultural equipments and supplies therefore has a
good rate of demand, but as agriculture can be unstable sometimes, the demand for
agricultural equipments and supplies will be changed in some situations. For examples,
drought, flood, or a decrease in agricultural products will discourage agriculturists to make
cultivation, and will directly decrease the demand for equipments and supplies.
Therefore, in order to counter with uncertain situations that might affect to the
company, it is necessary to have risk management. This process can reduce the loss of profits
for the company. Followings are risk management plans for Kaset Popeang Shop;
There are nine risks consist of; risk from bad climate, risk from competitors, risk from
the substitute products, risk from price decrease on agricultural products, risk from new
technology, risk from employee error, risk from theft, risk from fire and risk from supplier

According to Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat in this model, one can assess
where a particular risk falls in terms of likelihood and impact and establish the organizational
strategy and response to manage the risk.
1:1 is risk that our company can accept.
1:2 is risk that our company can accept but our company should to monitor risks.
2:1 is risk that our company may be worth accepting with monitoring.
1:3 is risk that our company requires to considerable management.
2:2 is risk that our company should to management effort worthwhile.
3:1 is risk that our company should to manage and monitor risks.
2:3 is risk that our company must manage and monitor risks.
3:2 is risk that our company requires management effort.
3:3 is risk that our company extremely management essential.
In developing methods to provide guidance on risk management, the different levels
of readiness and experience in a department, as well as variations in available resources need
to be recognized. Therefore, methods need to be flexible and simple using clear language to
ensure open channels of communication.
Risk from competitors
It is possible that new competitors will enter the market in the same area, or the
current competitor will provide new promotions or expand their business, these situations
will effect to the market share of the shop
In order to remain the shop’s market share in these situations, the shop will emphasis
more on promotions and advertisements, to attract customers away from other competitors.
The shop will also remain and promote the good service and the fully equipped concept, to
strengthen the differentiation from other competitors. These actions will help to keep the
shop’s market share from being taken by competitors.
Chapter 6: Risk Management 131
Project Feasibility Study of Kaset Popeang Company
Risk from supplier
In retail business have risk from suppliers such as lack of products and low quality of
products or send goods with wrong order. The risk has more effect with store like lack of
inventory, lost credit of our company, and income decrease.
Therefore, the way to prevent this risk is find and contact more suppliers for distributed risk.
If one of supplier cannot support goods to our company, the company will contact with
another supplier.
Risk from price decrease on agricultural product
The price of agricultural products can be unstable, due to the country’s economy, and
the government’s policies. Agriculturists will change the kind of their cultivation due to the
change in the price, quit growing products with low price and turn to products with higher
price.
Therefore, the shop will decrease the inventory for those products which the price is
decreased, and increase the inventory for products with increased price. In order to do this,
the shop’s manager will have to follow the news of the agriculture industry closely.
Risk from bad climate
In agriculture industry, climate plays a critical role of how the cultivation will become
in the year. If there is few rain falls, and not enough water for cultivation, it will be difficult
for agriculturists to cultivate. In contrast, with excessive rain falls and too much water will
also be a problem for cultivating.
The plan to counter bad climate situation is to adjust the shop’s inventory and
stocking. In a year with drought problem, the shop will stock more to water system
equipments, such as water pump and water pipe, because water system will be more
necessary to the drought season. Other equipments and supplies will be reduced from the
shop’s inventory, as the number of cultivation and demand are lower with drought, and to
spare the space for the water system equipments. As for excessive water period, many
agriculturists will have to change their cultivation to plants which will survive in excessive
Chapter 6: Risk Management 132
Project Feasibility Study of Kaset Popeang Company
water, such as sugar cane. The shop will stock more equipments and supplies for those kinds
of plants, and will reduce the inventory for plants which cannot be cultivated in excessive
water period.
Risk from fire
This risk has opportunity from careless of company and deteriorates of equipments or
electrical equipment. If this risk happens, it has more effect to lose asset and life.
However, our company will prevent fire risk by purchase fire insurance for decrease
lose of asset and increase confident. Moreover, our company will check electrical equipment
every 3 years, train employees carefully and not allow employees to smoke.
Risk from the substitute products
In the agricultural products have substitute products like fertilizer, it’s making from
natural and consumers can make by themselves. The substitutes have effect to decrease
quantity of sale. In addition natural fertilizer not effect to nature and it help to save the
ground.
However, the nature fertilizer still to making for long time to using, and trend to use
nature fertilizer is very low when comparing with fertilizer. Moreover if trend of nature
fertilizer is high, our store will increase promotion and advertising beside the expert
suggestion how to use fertilizer for suitable with cultivate area and the advantage then it can
help to increase quantity of sale and decrease the effect from the substitute products.
Risk from theft
Even though Chiang Rai is not an area with high level of theft problem, if burglary
happens it will cause damage to the inventory and to the profits of the company.
Therefore to prevent the damage that might happen, the shop buys an insurance which
cover the damage of burglary. With the insurance, the shop can be sure to prevent any loss
Chapter 6: Risk Management 133
Project Feasibility Study of Kaset Popeang Company
from theft, along with other accidents that might happen, including fire, hurricane, flood, and
all other disasters.
Risk from employee error
As for all businesses that focus on service concept, employees are a critical factor that
can affect a business greatly. If a salesperson ignores the customers, or if an advisory expert
is impolite to the customers, it will cause negative effects on the image of the company
greatly.
Therefore, in order to prevent these risks, the shop will select people with a good
service mind nature, and will train them continuously to give good service to customers. The
manager will monitor the employees’ performance closely to prevent the error.
Risk from new technology
Agricultural technology can be developed over time, newly developed equipments
and chemicals might replace the older ones. If the shop stock in the inventory many items
which are being replaced by new ones, old items might become out of date and become more
difficult to be sold.
The shop will have to follow the information and news on agricultural technology
development, to always be aware whenever there is new technology item developed.
However, there will be some agriculturists who will prefer to use equipments which they are
familiar with, so the shop will have to organize the inventory for all equipments in
appropriate proportion.
Chapter 6: Risk Management 134
Project Feasibility Study of Kaset Popeang Company
6.2 Financial Risk Analysis
As the table above, if cost of product has increased to 1%, 2%, and 3%, net income
does not decrease as much. On the another case, if Sale has decreased to 5%, 10%, and 15%,
the payback period does not change as much and the last case is increasing of interest will
affect to our company by getting increasing of payback period. However, our company has a
plan to bear those risk such as if cost of product increased, our company also will increase on
price of product following cost. Then, if sale decreased, our company will reduce the
inventory in order to decrease expense and increase cash flow of company. Next, if interest
increased, the new promotion will be added for increasing sale.
Finally, financial risk management is analyzed in order to suppose the situation that
might be occur in the future and how do company effect with that risk. Actually, the data is
quite from the real situation.

6.3 Conclusion
There are many factors that can affect agricultural industry. However, there are
solutions to prevent or solve those situations. There are nine risks consist of; risk from bad
climate, risk from competitors, risk from the substitute products, risk from the substitute
products, risk from price decrease on agricultural products, risk from new technology, risk
from employee error, risk from theft, and risk from supplier.
In situation of bad climate, is a risk in the level that our company should give
management effort; the shop can adjust the inventory according to the cultivation pattern of
the given climate. If the climate is dry the shop will increase inventory for water supply. In
contrast, if there is too much water, the shop will increase supply for cultivating plants in
watery climate.
Situation given there is higher competition in the market, is risk that our company
needs extremely management essential. The shop will emphasis more on promotions and
advertisements and remains and promotes the good service and the variety of goods concept,
to differentiate from other competitors.
In case suppliers become unreliable, as lack of products and low quality of products
or send goods with wrong order, is risk that our company must manage and monitor risks.
The shop will prevent this risk is find and contact more suppliers to decrease the risk.
In case of fire and other natural disasters, is risk that our company should to manage
and monitor risks. Our company will prevent fire risk by purchase fire insurance for decrease
lose of asset and check electrical equipment every 3 years, train employees carefully and not
allow employees to smoke.

monitoring. Our store will increase promotion and advertising, and also emphasis the expert
suggestions and advantages of the shop’s goods over substitute products.
Threats from theft and burglary, is risk that our company may be worth accepting
with monitoring. The shop buys insurance which covers theft and burglary. Even though this
happens, the shop will be paid to cover the amount of the loss.

Chapter 7: Summary 138
Project Feasibility Study of Kaset Popeang Company
Summary
From this project feasibility, we have found that the growth rate of agricultural
business is growing with an increasing rate. This project is practical as the number and
information have shown opportunities in this business. The market of agricultural industry is
large, with large demand; the current existing competitors’ supply is still not enough to
satisfy all demand of the market. Moreover, agriculture is considered a business with high
competitive strength, as agricultural products are necessary to both domestic and international
market. According from the field study in Mae Chan, with the research and information that
have been gathered and studied, supported by the current market situation, economic and
social condition of Chiang Rai, it is an agricultural province which most citizen are living as
agriculturists. These make agricultural industry still have high growth rate in this area, and
tend to have a better agricultural trend in the future.
In sale forecast, our company forecast the revenue and expense from number of
agriculturist in targeting market and area of cultivate. Our sale is related with seasoning of
crop. Moreover, as our company is new entry, the customers do not know us as well.
Therefore, marketing communication mixed is used in order to attract customers that make
them to know and recognize our company such as radio, sale promotion, event and gift.
We forecast sale estimate in five years, the accumulate sale is approximate
20,000,000 baht in five years. We think first two years our product could not sale as much as
our expected, but after two years, our sale has been increasing higher. We would not give
credit to customers because the risk is high to sell by credit.
The products of the company are fertilizer, insecticide, seed, equipments and parts.
The agriculture equipments, fertilizers, seed, and insecticides in Chiang Rai have many
brands and the company cannot produce by our selves, so our products come from suppliers.
About services, There are three kinds of service processes: General Services, Call center
services and after sale services. Our company give information to our customer about their
problem and the company will advice how to solve it or how to use equipment by advice all
of our customers with good condition to keep relationship.
Employee is important part of company; they are main point to force our company in
order to achieve a goal. The positions for employees consist of top managers, customer
assistants, housekeepers, agriculture experts, transportation manager, repairers and

accountant. The company sets standard and select people with sufficient skills and quality to
become employees, to execute the expected performance for the company.
There are many factors that can affect agricultural industry. There are nine risks
consist of; risk from bad climate, risk from competitors, risk from the substitute products, risk
from the substitute products, risk from price decrease on agricultural products, risk from new
technology, risk from employee error, risk from theft, and risk from supplier. However, there
are solutions to prevent or solve those situations, as stated in risk management chapter.
According to the number being referred from this project study, we can see that the
number in agricultural industry business is high, because of the landscape factors along with
the climate that is supporting agricultural activities. Furthermore, the current economic and
social situations have driven people to become agriculturists more, as the demand for
agricultural products and the price have been increasing from recent years. From the studied
and analyzed information in this project, it is perceivable that this business can generate a
high return, with a continuously growing rate. It is a business in which can be the answer for
investor
