The research instruments were a researcher-constructed interview form, digital camera, video camera, and tape recorder.</p> <p>The results show that the Serng Homdang folk dance depicts the shallot farming practiced by villagers in Chaichumpon, Laplae, Uttaradit which is recognized as an important shallot farming area for quality in Thailand. Miss Pornthip Manyuan invented the dance to show a unique way of making a living of the villagers. With regard to the dance components, there are 15 dance postures including standing, one-sided arm waggling, glancing, soil digging, <em>sabat chip</em>, two-sided arm waggling, straw covering, walking, watering, colander carrying, basket preparing, shallot picking, sweat wiping, being abashed and ending. It is a partner dance in which a male performer wear a <em>keng</em> shirt and <em>kamuh</em> pants, while a female dancer wear a <em>keng</em> blouse and <em>lablaeng</em> skirt (Sin Dam Puk). The dance props include a colander, a basket of shallot and a hoe. Though music and songs can be selective and are not specifically assigned, <em>Isaan Lai Toey Khong</em> music is typically used as its fast, cheerful beats are considered well accompanied with shallot farming activities. Serng Homdang plays a role as a local identity that brings about pride among community members, as a communication tool for the outsiders to understand the social context of Chaichumpon, as a representation of aesthetic value in the way of life, as a local performance for welcoming guests on various occasions, and as a physical and mental health promotion activity for the elderly.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Humanities and Social Sciences Nakhonsawan Rajabhat University Academic Journal}, author={akkararassakul, paroonjak and Limpanarom, Kanijtimon and Mahayosanan, Nuttapat and Mahayosanan , Phasisutha}, year={2021}, month={Jun.}, pages={28–39} }
