The purpose of this research was to examine the movement of Thailand’s pineapple export
value, determining the forecasting model using GARCH(p,q) for predicting the pineapple export
value in the future.
The results were found that the average of pineapple export value is -0.005294 , maximum
and minimum value of export are 0.926019 and -0.725050 respectively. By using Jarque-Bera
statistics testing, it reveals that Thailand’s pineapple export value is normality. The trend of
pineapple export value of Thailand tends to be stable during January 2015 till December 2016 at 8
million baht on average. At the beginning of January 2017, the pineapple export value increase
gradually and the export value is highest in March of 2018 at 48 million baht approximately. For
determining forecasting model using GARCH(p,q), it shows that the best fitting model for
predicting the pineapple export value is GARCH(0,2) which can be written as,
ht 0.0300 1.3720ht 1 1.0036ht 2 ? ? = + ?
The results for the performance of predictions using GARCH(0,2) using MAE and MSE are 0.0661
and 0.0079 respectively.
