First Rubber Tapping

Featured Replies

Hi, today it was our first day for rubber sale.

After 12 tappings we had 227kg lump and we get 17500 cash, not much but what a felinig!!!!

I think it's a good reason for a big whiskey today.

Regards

Sonny

Good for you, enjoy the whiskey and have one for me. I could do with one as it has not stopped raining in 6 days. Jim

Good for you Sonny, I hope to get the same feeling in a couple of weeks or so. It's been a long wait.

How many trees did you cut?

Ken

6 days Jim, you lucky so and so. 3 weeks here, we had a dry night last night, and did our man cut? Did he heck, he was sick. :angry:

Good luck Sonny, the 1st harvest is a relief I know. ;)

Rain, rain, rain, you wait for it to start so you can start tapping and then you wait for it to stop so you can tap. Jim

2 types of rain, not enough, and too much. We are on the latter lol.

Congrats..good feeling ain't it ..tax free!..

..wow... 77+ per kilo..great price ..we got 73 yesterday...they? are building a rubber processor plant about 5ks away so that should improve things I guess

how many trees? New or established?... if new then production will only improve for sure...goodonya..

david

strange post my "friend".. guess you drive an electric vehicle hugh..

..but since you bring it up I would agree that rubber processors are rather smelly and this plant is neither to windward or leeward and is 5 k away ....and we are already living the high life on a mountainside with our own wells and the water shed is all on our land.....

lighten up eh! :D

It's called Kee Yang for a good reason. Sister in law used to buy it and she is 200 yards upwind. :bah:

Just going to say a little on some of theses alleged wonder applications for getting more rubber. There are snake oil salesmen out there. Some of them make claims, but as of yet I have never seen one post an independent report or have a Government agriculture deportment recommendation. I had one guy trying to sell a tree vitamin that not only increased out put, but rejuvenated old trees and made young ones grow faster. When I asked for a sample to try, after all if it is that good I would be buying. No, minimum order $1,000 US.

Personally, if a thing is good word would travel fast. If the above is for real, feel free to post a link to an independent Uni or agriculture center, that has tested the product.

Much cheaper to get a monk to bless the trees and probably just as good for upping out put. Jim

Yes u are right about this . but everyone in MALAYSIA is familiar with Ethephon , because it is widely used in malaysia for over 20 years. so nobody will give u sample on a products that have been in the market for more than 20 years ,

here is the link on MALAYSIA RUBBER BOARD
