King Bhumibol Adulyadej (King Rama IX) foresaw the significance of plant genetic conservation prior to a recognition of the terms “Biological Diversity” and “Conservation” in Thailand. During the trip to Klai Kang Won Palace, A. Hua Hin, Prachuap Khiri Khan Province in 1960, he passed through A. Tha Yang, Phetchaburi Province and noticed many Yang Na trees (Dipterocarpus alatus). Therefore, he had royal words to collect the seeds to plant at Phra Tamnak Piam Suk, Klai Kang Won Palace, and grow the seedlings at Royal Chitralada Projects to study. In 1985, King Rama IX gave a royal word to conserve jackfruit tress around the Grand Palace and initiated the plant conservation project in the palaces by tissue culture. Later in 1986, he had the royal idea to conserve and breed rattan palms and arrange the herbal garden in Royal Chitralada Projects area. Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chari Sirindhorn carried on the plant conservation project by having the royal idea and asked Lord Chamberlain to carry out plant conservation project in June 1992, when the seed gene bank was formed, and study the preservation of non-industrial crops under the royal thought framework. In 1993, Mr. Sujin Phunikom, the Assistant Subdistrict Headman of Salui and Tha Sae District, Chumporn Province, and his group, cooperated with the Director of Ultra Products Co., Ltd. and the agriculturists in Chumporn Province to establish plant conservation project at the public area located at Moo.6, Salui District (presently Moo. 5 and 6, Salui District, and Moo.4 and 7, Song Phi Nong District). At the same time, the Royal Chitralada Projects was looking for the area to set up the Plant Genetic Conservation Project Under The Royal Initiative of Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chari Sirindhorn. Subsequently, Royal Chitralada Projects represented by Professor Prachid Wamanont (the Consultant) and the team met with Chumporn Governor (Mr. Prayoon Promphan) to discuss about the project. The first five years, the project was named “Plant Conservation and Development Project Under The Royal Initiative of Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chari Sirindhorn, Chumporn Province”. Chumporn Provincial Agricultural Extension proposed the project for the approval from Chumporn Governor and submit the project documents to the Director of Royal Chitralada Projects to respectfully inform to Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chari Sirindhorn on 26 April 1993. Moreover, Plant Conservation and Development Project was integrated with the royal plant genetic conservation project, which Dr. Pisit Wora-urai was a Chairman. The executives meeting on 9 July 1997 had the resolution to change the project’s name from “Plant Conservation and Development Project Under The Royal Initiative of Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chari Sirindhorn, Chumporn Province” to “Plant Genetic Conservation Project Under The Royal Initiative of Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chari Sirindhorn”

Dong Muang Toei is the old city of the Khmer period. No one knows when it has been an abandoned city for how long. The condition seen from many generations of great-grandparents; Dong Muang Toei has high forests with transparent in the bottom ground. There were some small trees and the big trees are rubber trees, tabaek trees, and Yang Hiang trees. It is a very dense forest. The parents and grandparents did not dare to cut down the trees in this grove because Dong Muang Toei has a fierce ghost called the Ghost of Grandfather. The forest is the habitat of monkeys and many birds. The marsh around Dong Muang Toei is a deep swamp with water all year round. It is a habitat and a natural breeding ground for fish. In addition to birds and this swamp is known to have the most turtles. The reason there are so many turtles, the villagers worship the spirits of their grandfathers. Grandfather forbids anyone to eat and destroy his animals, monkeys and turtles, and if they cause harm, they shall be punished accordingly. Later, about 90 years ago, Song Puei villagers had a shaman who studied sorcery to perform a ceremony to defeat the ghosts of Muang Toei. This sorcerer's name is Elder Suwo. This incident coincides with the reign of Father Yai Agrahad. It was the eyes of the light when villagers near and far heard the news that Father Yai Suwo had defeated the Phi Dong Muang Toei. They flocked to catch fish turtles from Muang Toei for food until they almost cleared the swamp. So turtles are almost extinct until now. Father Yai Suwo has shared the swamp as a land for brothers and sisters to cultivate until today. As for Dong Muang Toei, the area has been divided into farming, gardening, and growing crops as much as today. This is true Elderly people who have reached 90 years of age, such as Father Yai, light scent, Father Big Bu Kokpuei, are still alive as witnesses.
