Abstract
The objectives of this research were to develop the model of food security of households through environmental education in Pong riverside communities. This research was quantitative research. Data collection by survey and evaluation form 45 people from 10 household representatives in Kut Nam Sai joined in the action of organic food sufficient to supply. Menhinick index (R2) is used to examining the richness index of edible plants. The data were analyzed using descriptive and t-test. In summary, increasing the adequacy of food by organic farming of 10 pilot households in a total of 2 crops has resulted in food crops. The results showed that the diversity of edible plants was a significant increase in the diversity of food crops from R2 = 1.52, to R2 = 0.31. A total of 45 household representatives were increased in knowledge and awareness at the highest level P=0.05 (x̅ = 4.85, S.D.) the model is significant for using.
