The incident was one of several blamed on southern Thai separatists trying to send a violent message before voters get to the polls on Sunday.
Police said two irrigation workers were killed and five others were wounded when the first bomb exploded in Narathiwat province, while another bomb about 1 kilometer (one-half mile) away wounded a soldier.
