whoppe78 Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 today my gf came to me with idea to buy a rubber tree and to plant for the future.Says 1 tree will give family a job and income in 7 years. I don't know if this is her Mommas idea to get money out of me for whatever reason. It seems to me that 1 tree can not generate that much income. Is there any potential for rubber tree farming here in Thailand and if so I would imagine would need more than 1 tree.I'm just trying to get some facts on subject before I jump to the conclusion that they are just trying to scam me again.

Bosse137 Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 (edited) Hi! I guess you will soon hear from james collister,but in the meantime I can tell you,that it is,hm,well,rubbish.......You will need at least 500 trees and probably work them youself,to get a modest,and I mean modest,living out of it! I think you have missunderstood what your gf told you....Perhaps she meant to say one land with trees... Edited July 23, 2011 by Bosse137 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPI Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Let me see......1 tree gives about half a kilo a month which will come out to about 65 baht, which, you will have to share with your tapper in a 60:40 split. About 40 baht to you per month......looks good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosse137: you hit the nail squarely on its head ! thanks that is what I thought maybe they talking about land with many trees. But mostly I thinking they want me to pay off some land they aquired and make up a story about buying 1 tree for 20000 baht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
