| Description: | The Ban Mae Khong-kha, 100 sq. km. lower sub-watershed of the Mae Chaem watershed in Chiangmai, Thailand was selected as one of the Alternative-to-Slash-and-Burn (ASB) benchmark research sites in 1994. The major conflict here was between the downstream community of Northern Thai (Khon Muang) who accused the upstream Karen (Pgakanyaw) community of practicing subsistence paddy rice cultivation and high-input maize monoculture which caused stream pollution and soil degradation. Participatory scenarios for natural resources management and planning (PSNRMP) is a novel technique for 'participatory planning' employed in this study, which provides not only plausible policies from the community for sustainable management of the Mae Kong Kha Sub-watershed, but also the possibility to validate the larger-scale expert scenarios as well as cross-scale integration for both national and among international ASB sites.
