Abstract
The spatial exploratory and spatial lag are applied to analyze the spatial analysis of policy effects on organic farming in northern of Thailand. The empirical result explores that organic farming on one positive district affects to organic farming in neighbouring districts. Moreover, the spatial analysis indicates that relationship between farmers becomes an important factor that affect to grow organic farming. Therefore, to increase organic farming, the policy-maker should lay emphasis on implementing the proper organic farming policy in each area and creating the connection between farmers and organic communities.
