It was found that Virginia tobacco in Chiang Mai Province and other provinces was of better filler quality as compared with other countries. But the farmers had not much experience. The geographical environment was not suitable for planting. Thai farmers began to plant on rainy season to cold season, while developed countries started from cold season to summer season. Furthermore, the cost of production was little bit higher and production is lower per rai compared to some other developed countries. Because of the farmers' insufficient knowledge and their lack of awareness of modern technology from the Tobacco Board, this created some problems in pricing and quality. However, Thai Tobacco was potential to improve its quality from filler to semi-classical. If the similar seeds and processing were used here as they were used in other developed countries, then it would bring Thai Tobacco to the level of international standard. The following were the suggestion to solve the problem in order to promote tobacco business in the northern region of Thailand: (1) increase the production to meet world markets demands; (2) price and quality; (3) system of domestic market, and (4) lackness of promotion and control from the Tobacco board.
