Dec. 3--The Agriculture Ministry is overhauling the production structure for rice, shrimp, chicken, rubber and fruits to improve revenues for farmers and the overall economy.

Khunying Sudarat Keyuraphan, the agriculture minister, said that the action plan, to be finalised this month, was aimed at selecting the types of crops and farm products suitable for different regions and changing the market's dynamics.

The goals include a 4-5 percent increase in gross domestic product in the agricultural sector, forecast to be valued at around 700 billion baht next year, with an expected value of 950 billion baht by 2008.
