The Rubber Board would conduct a statistical sample survey of rubber holdings in Kerala.
The survey is meant to assess the age of plantations, production and stock of rubber, maintenance of plantations, growers’ response to the board’s schemes and the activities of Rubber Producers’ Societies.
The aim of the survey is to update the statistics with the board and to collect inputs for the formulation of 12th Five Year Plan proposals.
The sample would have 10,000 holdings from different regions of Kerala. The field survey is planned and designed in consultation with external experts.
The survey is being done by the Board’s own extension officers, so as to ensure maximum correctness of data.
