Experiments on azuki bean production were carried out at the Royal Pang Da Agricultural Station in October 1996, at Nong Keaw and Khun Pae with three different planting dates in 1997 and at other 26 stations in 1998. Seed characteristics, such as seed color, seed size, hard seed percentage as well as some yield components were determined. Azuki beans obtained from those experimental plots were sent to the Laboratory of the Ueno Fine Chemicals Industry Ltd., Japan for processing of bean paste. It was found out at the beginning that the color of azuki bean seeds of Erimo cultivar produced in Thailand was darker than that of Japanese Erimo. In general, the seed size is rather small to medium with high percentage of hard seed. Those bean seeds yielded poor quality of bean paste. It was fortunate to find out that azuki beans produced at a high altitude of around 1000 m showed a good seed size and seed color. At the same time, Ueno Laboratory is able to produce a better bean paste with a modification of certain processing techniques. It anticipates that when high quality of azuki beans produced in a suitable highland by farmers under the Royal Project Foundation support, the Ueno company will buy those bean seeds to be used as a raw material for bean paste industry.
