		<description><![CDATA[พายุลูกเห็บที่บ้านดอนตัน

The Build Up to the monsoon season in northern Thailand starts in March and April, with thunderstorms and sometimes hail. This evening, we got a bit of both.

ฤดูลมมรสุมทางภาคเหนือของประเทศไทยนั้นมักจะเกิดขึ้นอย่างรุนแรงในช่วงเดือนมีนาคม - เมษายน ทำให้มีพายุฝนฟ้าคะนองและอาจเกิดลูกเห็บได้ ซึ่งในวันนี้ทางเราเองก็เจอไปทั้งสองอย่าง ทำให้ผลผลิตในสวนเสียหายไปบ้าง]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ราคาข้าวที่เป็นธรรม

How much should a kilogram of rice cost? That’s one of the central questions of our community agriculture project. I’m not asking how much does a kg of rice cost. The question is, how much should it cost.

ข้าว 1 กิโลกรัมควรจะมีราคาเท่าไหร่? นั่นเป็นหนึ่งในคำถามหลักของโครงการเพื่อชุมชนเกษตรของพวกเรา เราไม่ได้ถามว่าข้าว 1 กิโลกรัมมีราคาเท่าไหร่ แต่คำถามของเราก็คือมัน "ควร" จะมีราคาเท่าไหร่]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Permaculture acknowledges a basic life ethic, which recognises the intrinsic worth of every living thing. It strives to take a benevolent approach, restoring habitat and allowing all things their place. The creation of refuge is one way to achieve this aim and increase yield at the same time.

การเกษตรแบบ permaculture ให้ความสำคัญกับหลักการดำเนินชีวิตแบบเรียบง่ายที่ยอมรับในคุณค่าของทุกชีวิต จากการที่มันเป็นระบบที่เป็นมิตรที่ดีต่อสิ่งแวดล้อมรอบด้าน ในด้านหนึ่งจึงเท่ากับเป็นการฟื้นฟูที่อยู่อาศัยของชีวิตต่าง ๆ ไปด้วย ซึ่งการสร้างที่อยู่ให้ชีวิตเหล่านี้นอกจากจะเป็นทางหนึ่งในการบรรลุจุดประสงค์ดังกล่าวแล้วยังเป็นการช่วยเพิ่มผลผลิตได้ในเวลาเดียวกันด้วย]]></description>
