The district dates back to the Mueang Phana Nikhon (พนานิคม), which was a subordinate of Mueang Ubon Ratchathani. As the district office was in Ban Khulu, the district was renamed Khulu in 1917.[1] In 1939 it was renamed Phana Nikhom,[2] and finally named Trakan Phuet Phon the following year.[3] The name Trakan Phuet Phon refers to 'beautiful crops'.[4]
The district is divided into 23 sub-districts (tambons), which are further subdivided into 235 villages (mubans). Trakan Phuet Phon is a sub-district municipality (thesaban tambon) which covers tambon Khu Lu and parts of tambon Kham Charoen. There are a further 22 tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
