The project began with research and data collection on the by-products of the Trad Thong pineapple, such as peels, leaves, and cores, which possess potential for value-added product development. Researchers from multiple academic institutions collaborated to study the properties of these materials and developed prototype products through scientific and innovative processes, aiming for practical applications that benefit local communities. Subsequently, seminars and workshops were organised to disseminate research findings and transfer knowledge to residents. These activities emphasised community participation through learning, hands-on experiences, and knowledge exchange. The project also fostered a strong network of collaboration among researchers, academic institutions, government agencies, and the local population in Trat Province, promoting efficient resource utilisation and enhancing the economic value of local produce sustainably. Additionally, the project included a performance evaluation and lessons learned to inform future development. It aims to deliver tangible economic, social, and environmental benefits while serving as a model for community development, grounded in academic research and innovation.
