Rubber Tree Equipment


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello, can someone tell me a few things about the rubber tree farming.

My wife and I currently have 17 Rai that will be mature enough next year for tapping with another 25 Rai 3 years behind. I really know noghting more than what I am picking up on the net but want to try to estimate the cost that I will be occurring in the coming years.

1. What equipment is needed and where do I buy it and can you provide a estimated cost. (pans, cups, rollers etc.)

2. How many people (laborers) will I need for 17 rai (100 trees per rai = 1700 trees,)

3. Is it better to sun dry the rubber or smoke house it?

4. Better to sell in liguid form or mat?

5. Do you tap a tree everyday or evrey other day or how often?

6. is 150 baht per tree per month sound reasonable?

7. How often should I be fertilizing mature trees? young trees?

8. Where to sell in the Issan Province near Ubon Ratchathani?

9. Looking to buy more land near Trakan Phuet Phon. 30,000/rai barren up to 100,000/rai for mature tree land.

Thanks everyone. Merry Christmas to Everyone!
