Resumo: | Earthen weir (thamnop) irrigation of rice fields was formerly widespread in Northeast Thailand (Isan) but has greatly declined in recent years, although still persisting in some places in southern Isan. The objective of this research was to discover if there are differences in the contexts of existing and abandoned of thamnop that may explain their retention or abandonment. Field study employing participation observation and interviewing of key informants and samples of farmer households was done in two villages in Surin province. One village has a still-functioning thamnop, the other has an abandoned one. Both physical and social factors were found to differ among the two cases. The existing thamnop is located at the midpoint between the uplands and lowlands which endows it with a much larger command area that provides benefits to many more households than is the case with the abandoned thamnop which is located in the lowlands and also causes extensive flooding of low-lying paddy fields. The existing thamnop has never broken, in part because it is reinforced by the roots of the trees planted on its shoulders and because the presence of the nearby spirit house encourages the villagers to protect it. The abandoned thamnop, which lacked such protections, suffered frequent breaks requiring villagers to make extensive repairs. Thus, because, unlike the abandoned thamnop, the still-functioning thamnop provides major benefits and causes few problems to villagers. There was no incentive to replace it with government water management projects as occurred in the case of the abandoned thamnop.
