Executive Summary
Overall economy in 2022 increased by 2.5%, continued from 1.6% in 2021. This was
attributed to an expansion in both agricultural and non-agricultural production. Agricultural
production rose due to increased main crops production. Non-agricultural production
expanded, in response to mitigation of worldwide COVID-19 spread. In particular, thetourism-related services sector expanded, due to an ease of several COVID-19 measures.
Additionally, the government continuously implemented measures to stimulate theeconomy.
Overall production in 2022 at current market prices valued at 17,378,017 million baht.
After deducting 499,795 million baht of net factor income from the rest of the world,
Gross National Income (GNI) registered the value of 16,878,222 million baht, with an
expansion of 8.0%. While GNI per capita was 241,632 baht, higher than 224,233 baht in
2021 or a 7.8% growth.
Agricultural production increased by 2.5%, sustained from 2.2% in 2021. The expansion
resulted from higher yields of main crops, namely paddy, sugarcane, oil palm and otherfruits. However, livestock production remained stable as production of cattle, buffalo andpoultry expanded, while swine production decreased. In addition, fisheries production
declined.

Non-agricultural production increased by 2.5%, maintained from 1.5% in 2021. The service
sector increased by 3.8%, accelerated from 0.3% in 2021. This improvement was attributable
to an acceleration in tourism-related sectors such as accommodation and food service
activities; wholesale and retail trade, repair of motor vehicle and motorcycle;
and transportation and storage. However, the industrial sector grew by 0.1%, slowed downfrom 3.8% in 2021. The deceleration was driven by the manufacturing production, which grew
by 0.7%, slowed down from 4.7% in 2021, due to lower external demand following
economic situation of important trading partners.
Regional production in 2022 increased from growth rates of Bangkok and vicinities at 3.6%,
the West at 2.6%, and the North at 1.4%, improved from 0.5%, 2.5% and 1.2% in 2021,
respectively. Moreover, the South increased by 3.2%, rebounded from a 3.2% fall in 2021. In
addition, the East and the Northeast increased by 2.2% and 0.3%, slowed down from 4.4%
and 3.6%, orderly. Meanwhile, the Central dropped by 2.2%, from an increase of 4.9% in
2021.

The production income distribution was measured from the proportion of gross regional
product (GRP) at current market prices to GDP. The East and the South presented higher
shares, which increased from 18.2% and 7.9% in 2021 to 18.9% and 8.0% in 2022, orderly.
However, the production shares of Bangkok and vicinities, the Northeast, the North and theCentral decreased from 46.8%, 10.4%, 7.7%, and 5.4% in 2021 to 46.6%, 10.1%, 7.6% and5.2% in 2022, orderly. Meanwhile, the West remained the same at 3.6% as 2021.
The main sectors of each region can be orderly described as follows: Bangkok andvicinities with the highest GDP share of 46.6%, comprised mainly manufacturing production;
wholesale and retail trade, repair of motor vehicle and motorcycle; and financial andinsurance activities. Secondly, the East with a GDP share of 18.9%, was led by manufacturing
production; wholesale and retail trade, repair of motor vehicle and motorcycle; and mining
and quarrying. Thirdly, the Northeast posted a 10.1% share of GDP, originated fromagriculture, forestry, and fishing; manufacturing production; and wholesale and retail trade,
repair of motor vehicle and motorcycle. The South covered 8.0% share of GDP, was led byagriculture, forestry, and fishing; wholesale and retail trade, repair of motor vehicle andmotorcycle; and manufacturing production. Fifth, the North accounted for 7.6% of GDP,
mainly comprised agriculture, forestry, and fishing; manufacturing production; and wholesale
and retail trade, repair of motor vehicle and motorcycle. The Central accounted for 5.2% ofGDP, mainly from manufacturing production; wholesale and retail trade, repair of motor
vehicle and motorcycle; and electricity, gas, steam, and air conditioning supply. Lastly, theWest recorded a share of 3.6% of GDP, mainly attributed to agriculture, forestry, and fishing;
manufacturing production; and wholesale and retail trade, repair of motor vehicle andmotorcycle.

GRP per capita in 2022, the East recorded the highest GRP per capita at 515,683 baht per year. Thiswas respectively followed by Bangkok and vicinities, the Central, the West, the South, the North, andthe Northeast. Meanwhile, the Northeast with the lowest GRP per capita, recorded the value of
95,948 baht per year.
GPP per capita in 2022 revealed that provinces with high GPP per capita situated in the East,
Bangkok and vicinities, and the Central. The most significant gap emerged between Rayong andNarathiwat, with GPP per capita of 1,003,497 and 60,876 baht per year, respectively. The difference
was equivalent to 16.5 times. The five provinces with highest GPP per capita were Rayong, Bangkok
Metropolis, Chon Buri, Chachoengsao, and Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya. On the contrary, Narathiwat,

The regional production
The Northeast
Overall, gross regional product (GRP) of the Northeast in real terms expanded by 0.3%, slowed
down from 3.6% in 2021, which was attributable to a deceleration in both agricultural andnon-agricultural production. Agricultural production, which accounted for 20.7% of the Northeast’s
total production, grew by 1.4%, decelerated from 4.3% in 2021. Meanwhile, non-agricultural
production remained at the same level.
Agricultural production increased by 1.4%, decelerated from 4.3% in 2021. This was due to the impact
of monsoon and several storms during Q3/2022, especially for Typhoon Noru. Consequently, crop andanimal production and related service activities increased by 1.6%, slowed down from 4.3% in 2021.
The deceleration mainly came from rubber and vegetables, while paddy and cassava declined. However,sugar cane and fruit expanded favorably. Agricultural services increased corresponding to the expansion incrop production services and harvesting activities. Livestock production increased, led by cattle, buffalo
and swine. Whereas, poultry production decreased, as well as fishery production.

The South
Overall, gross regional product (GRP) of the South in real terms expanded by 3.2%, rebounded from adecrease of 3.2 % in 2021. This was mainly attributable to non-agricultural production, which
accounted for 73.2% of the South’s total production, grew by 7.0%, from a fall of 5.0% in 2021.
Meanwhile, agricultural production, accounting for 26.8% of the South’s total production, decreased by
6.1%, compared to a rise of 2.2% in 2021.
Agricultural production decreased by 6.1%, compared to an increase of 2.2% in 2021. The drop
resulted from unfavorable weather conditions and rising cost of production, which led to a decline in
the production of major crops, such as rubber, other fruits, and paddy. Besides, fishery production
continually dropped, in response to a decrease in freshwater and marine fishing production. While,
oil palm and other vegetable still expanded. Furthermore, there was a rise in agricultural services,
resulting from an expansion in support activities for crop production and harvesting. In addition,
livestock production increased from swine, cattle and buffalo.

The East
Overall, gross regional product (GRP) of the East in real terms grew by 2.2%, slowed down from
4.4% in 2021. The deceleration was driven by non-agricultural production, accounting for 93.7% of
the East’s total production, which increased by 1.0%, decelerated from 4.9% in 2021. Meanwhile,
agricultural production, accounting for 6.6% of the East’s total production, increased by 19.5%,
compared to a 2.0% drop in 2021.
Agricultural production grew by 19.5%, in contrast to a 2.0% fall in 2021. The increase wasattributable to crop and livestock production, and related service activities which rose by 22.2%,
from a decrease of 3.4% in 2021, propelled by higher yields of tropical fruit production such as
durian and mangosteen. In addition, fishing production increased by 2.1% in line with production of
freshwater and marine fishing. However, livestock production declined by 0.5%, due to lower
production of swine affected by African swine fever (ASF).

GPP per capita indicated that the provinces with 10 highest GPP per capita were mostly locatedin the East, Bangkok and vicinities, and the Central. These provinces had significant proportions of
non-agricultural production, including manufacturing production; wholesale and retail trade, repairof motor vehicles and motorcycles; transportation and storage; financial and insurance activities;
and accommodation and food service activities. Additionally, the provinces with 10 highest GPP
per capita were Rayong, Bangkok Metropolis, Chonburi, Chachoengsao, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya,
Prachinburi, Samut Sakhon, Saraburi, Samut Prakan and Nakhon Pathom, respectively. Rayong’s
GPP per capita stood at 1,003,497 baht per year. This was driven by manufacturing production, led
by production of refined petroleum products; chemicals and chemical products; and rubber and1

GPP per capita is simply the value of total GRP or GPP divided by the number of people in the area. GRP or
GPP per capita does not reflect how wealthy the people really are; it only shows how well off they would be
if everybody got an equal share of what the economy produces.

plastic products, as well as mining and quarrying, mainly from crude oil and natural gas.
Meanwhile, the 10 provinces with the lowest GPP per capita were mostly those whose primary
income came from agricultural production, which experienced high uncertainties in both thequantity and price. Moreover, there was low concentration of non-agricultural production,
especially for the level of manufacturing production, resulting in less economic activities.
The lowest GPP per capita followed by Narathiwat, Mae Hong Son, Nong Bua Lam Phu, Mukdahan,
Yasothon, Sakon Nakhon, Sa Kaeo, Chaiyaphum, Roi Et and Ubon Ratchathani. Narathiwat’s GPP
per capita was recorded at 60,876 baht per year which was mainly from the services sector. Lastly,
the difference in GPP per capita between Rayong and Narathiwat was 16.5 times.
