The survey aimed to monitor fish and aquatic species diversity, providing valuable data on local biodiversity to inform the planning and development efforts of the Walai Rukhavej Botanical Research Institute and Mahasarakham University. This initiative is part of the Kerng Station Development Plan (2023-2026), focused on promoting natural aquatic tourism and organic agriculture for community benefit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"598\" height=\"604\" src=\"https:\/\/walai.msu.ac.th\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-39.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-702\" srcset=\"https:\/\/walai.msu.ac.th\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-39.png 598w, https:\/\/walai.msu.ac.th\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-39-297x300.png 297w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 598px) 100vw, 598px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"246\" height=\"131\" src=\"https:\/\/walai.msu.ac.th\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-40.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-703\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/shorturl.asia\/szp07\">https:\/\/shorturl.asia\/szp07<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2.
