The Japan International Research Center for Agricultural Sciences (JIRCAS), together with other research institutions in Asia, conducts joint research to deepen the understanding of native agricultural, forestry, and fishery products, processed foods, and traditional fermented foods, promote their use, and contribute to enriching people’s lives around the world. This database is based on the bibliographic information compiled by the Institute of Food Research and Product Development (IFRPD) at Kasetsart University in Thailand. It categorizes Thailand’s diverse fermented foods by raw material, such as fishery products, livestock products, fruits, vegetables, rice, and soybeans, and provides photos, explanations, and descriptions of production methods. This information has been available on the JIRCAS website since FY2015. In 2024, the content on the website was partially revised based on the latest information, updating photos, and including information on microorganisms along with reference literature.
