The first part was the quantitative research to find the relationships between economic indicators and exchange rates of Thai Baht per US Dollar using Multiple Regression, and the relationships between exchange rates and agriculture products exports using Linear Regression. The second part was the qualitative research to find the relationships between exchange rates and export volumes of exported agricultural products.
The first part of study showed that the economic indicators were forward position (bought), balance of payment, international reserves, and interest rates that were taken as independent variables, while exchange rates were taken as a dependent variable. The best economic indicator model showed highest R2. The result also indicated the negative relationship of forward position (bought), balance of payment, and international reserves versus exchange rates. The other result of regression showed that variation in interest rates had no relationship with exchange rates. However it was also indicated the exchange rate affected the overall export volume of agricultural products among which three top products were rice, rubber, and tapioca respectively by applying Linear Regression. The result showed negative correlation of such effect. The last part was qualitative research to determine and explain the effect of exchange rates especially on rice and rubber exports obtained from the in-depth interviews of respondents which were analyzed using Content Analysis to categorize based on similar response. There were seventeen interviewees, from different levels within private and governmental businesses. The results found that there were many factors affected exchange fluctuation. The effect of exchange rates on rice and rubber exports created problems and obstacles to business growth specially when the exchange rate experiences strong fluctuations. Therefore, the company had to book forward contracts to hedge foreign exchange risk.
