Development Model of a Prototype of Group Internal Control System for Quality Nang Lae Pineapple Production

Abstract

The objectives of the research were to develop a prototype of the internal control system for Nang Lae pineapple production and to assess the internal control system for the quality of Nang Lae pineapple production. The targets were Nang Lae pineapple farmers who were registered to use the GI logo and 26 cases. The research tools were: 1) the sub-group meeting to develop a prototype of the internal control system. production process and packing for sale, 2) an interview form on the implementation of the model quality control system for geographical indications "Pineapple Nang Lae”, 3) a user satisfaction assessment form for the model quality control system for geographical indications “Pineapple Nang Lae” Data analysis: 1) the sub-group meetings are used to classify and analyze the linkage of the data Summarize and synthesize the information obtained as a whole. 2) Follow-up meeting information Analyze the data according to the assessment in each aspect. Then summarize the information into strengths, weaknesses, and lessons learned in the development of internal control systems for the production of quality Nang Lae pineapples.

            The results showed that: 1) the prototype of the internal control system group according to the Geographical Indication Product Quality Standard “Nang Lae pineapple” consisted of 3 audit control goals; namely geographical location, production process, and packing for distribution. Furthermore, a practical manual for pineapple farmers and inspectors to apply for registration of geographical indication logo users, consisting of procedures for applying for geographical indication logo User Registration “Nang Lae pineapple”, a form for recording plot and product data for farmers and a form for the audit committee to verify planting and product data ant. 2) the evaluation of the prototype quality control system for the geographical indication product “Nang Lae pineapple” was carried out by a sample of 20 pineapple farmers and a committee of six local plot auditors. It was found that the data was collected correctly and completely.

            With regard to the satisfaction of the users of the geographic indicator product quality control system, “Nang Lae pineapple” found that the form according to the internal control system was easy to understand, good for time-saving transaction information, and simple to operate in accordance with the needs of data users at all levels, whether at the user level (pineapple farmers), intermediate level (local inspectors), or advanced level (provincial inspectors).

          In addition, the timeliness and flexibility of the study found that pineapple farmers were able to prepare plot and product data quickly and in time to prepare for inspection by plot auditors. Above all, the inspectors were flexible, whether they were farmers or members of the audit committee.
