Abstract
The objectives of this research were to 1) study the successful operations of community rice center 2) study factors relating to the management of one-stop community rice center 3) develop the extension model on the management of one-stop community rice center 4) evaluate the extension model on the management of one-stop service community rice center. This research was mixed method research by conducting in-depth interview of 12 people from the sample group through purposive sampling method. The relating factors with the management of one-stop community rice center came from 894 people. The sample size of 277 people was determined by using Taro Yamane formula. Data were collected by using interview forms and were analyzed by using descriptive analysis, factor analysis, and multiple regression analysis. The results of the research found that factors impacting the success in the management of one-stop community rice center regarding group development for sustainability was at the highest level (ðĨĖ = 4.54 SD = .591). For management aspect, it was at the highest level (ðĨĖ = 4.37 SD = .690). Regarding quality rice seed production, it was at the high level (ðĨĖ = 4.11 SD = .591). When encouraging community rice center to practice according to the guidelines for all 3 components, it would impact the success in the operation of community rice center more (77.80%). The development of extension model in one-stop community rice center applied result base management (RBM) as the framework in the development of result base management in order to transform community rice center into the one-stop management so that the center would be able to produce and distribute good quality rice seed for wider coverage and sufficient. The farmers would have secured job with higher earnings, and strengthen the community in the group leading to better quality of lives. āļĄāļĩModel evaluation was at the highest level regarding the appropriateness, the probability for adoption into practice, the consistency with the context, and the adaptation into real life benefit.
