摘要：

The objective of this study was to determine the magnitudes of the water footprints throughout the production chain of silk. This research is divided into two parts: the agriculture of mulberry cultivation and the handwoven silk production process. The research results revealed that the highest water footprint for 2019 was 1710 cubic metric/tonne, which was greater than the highest water footprint for 2018 of 1125 cubic metric/tonne. For the handwoven silk products, the blue water footprint, grey water footprint, and total water footprint were 445,156, and 601 litres/kg, respectively. The water footprint of one silk shirt was calculated backwards from the handwoven silk production process as 376 litres. Thailand, the world's largest native handwoven silk product exporter must have a strategy to promote the silk industry's competitiveness on the world market. Policies stating that farmers, entrepreneurs, government agencies and private organisations should be prepared to address eco-friendly trends for sustainable production and consumption are also recommended.
