are rice farmers, cultivating one crop per year on terraces in the mountainous terrain. In 1970, King Bhumibol and the queen visited Ban Pa Pae. The king encouraged the villagers to establish a rice bank to dampen the feast or famine cycle of rice availability. He gave 20,000 baht to cover start-up costs. To get started, the villagers bought 200,000 kg of rice with the funds. The rice bank now lends rice to villagers at 20% interest, payable in kind. The rice bank has now (2016) been operating for 46 years. Produce grown in the village is sold to the Mae Sariang Royal Project Development Centre. The king and queen visited the village five times between 1970 and 1981 to follow-up on progress. In 1979, a dirt road was cut to the village. It got electricity in 1996.
