Best Answer

The harvest festival in Thailand is known as the Royal Ploughing Ceremony. It is held outside the Grand Palace in Bangkok.

It is believed that the ox's used in the ceremony will predict growing conditions for the coming year, so farmers can determine what crops to put in their fields.
