This environmental science research aimed to compare the quality of rice paddy soil in Trang Province between Mueang Trang District and Nayong District. The objectives of the study were: (1) to compare the soil structure of rice paddies in Mueang Trang and Nayong Districts, (2) to compare the soil pH levels, (3) to compare soil moisture content, and (4) to compare light intensity in rice paddy areas in both districts. The study involved measuring soil structure, soil moisture, soil pH, and light intensity. The results showed that rice paddy soil in Mueang Trang District had higher moisture content than that in Nayong District, with an average soil moisture of 78.33% in Mueang Trang and 35% in Nayong District. The light intensity in Mueang Trang District was lower than that in Nayong District, with average values of 500 lux and 1,233 lux, respectively.
