Growing mungbean followed by corn gave the net return of 1,330 baht/rai, grain yield of both crop were 166 and 621 kg/rai. Growing corn as the first crop followed by soybean gave the lowest net return of 932 baht/rai with grain yield of 635 and 160 kg/rai. Farm gate price of the product was 14 baht/kg for the first crop of soybean sold as seed. Peanut and mungbean were 4 and 8 baht/kg. The first crop of corn was 2.50 baht/kg whereas the second crop of corn 2.70 baht/kg. For soybean grown as the second crop it was sold at 7.20 baht/kg.
