ABSTRACT
This research aimed to study in the Chomthong Project, Vientiane: 1) the state of
the socio-economic and water resource with regard to users of irrigated water; 2) the role
and factors of water users that affected the management of irrigation water users; and 3)
suggestions to develop the role of irrigated water. The population consisted of 161 irrigation
water users in the Chomthong Project. A questionnaire was applied as a tool to collect data
which were then processed by a computer program. Analytical statistics that were used in
this research were percentage, arithmetic mean, standard deviation, t-test, F-test and Scheffe’s
paired-test with the statistical level of significance set at 0.05.
The results of the study showed that most of the respondents were male, aged between
40 and 49 years, who had completed secondary education and were the head of the family
with 5-6 family members. Their social status was a member of community and they had
lived in the community since they were born but there was a tendency to move out of the
community in order to cover their housing expenses. Most of them owned less than 1
hectare of land, with agriculture as the main career and plantations as a minor career and the
average family income was between 5,000 and 6,000 baht per month or more than 16,000
baht per year. The role of the water user on water irrigation management was considered to
be overall at the moderate level. Other aspects rated from the highest to lowest level were:
maintenance, support from an irrigation officer, irrigation water management and administration
among water users.
