Thailand • Dr. Yukol Limlamthong, Director-General of

the Department of Livestock Development at the Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives

“Apart from the effect of the economic downturn, the biggest change in demand patterns has to be that Thai people nowadays are more health conscious than in the past and they understand more about food safety. Consumer purchasing behaviour has changed from being based largely on price or quantity to a level where quality is also taken into consideration. They are especially willing to pay more for foods that are considered to be safer.”
