Jim I would really like to talk to you. I am an english guy with a plantation in Issan. I have only 28 rai and at present only 400 trees are large enough to be cropped. I have made some contacts in Europe and I am considering moving into the export business a I think this may be more interesting than the plantation. I cant get a handle on whether there is a better margin to be had from producing sheets than cup lump. I cant find any email address for you mine is dordognebusiness@yahoo.com
Hi, Jim. Where can I get an idea how to assemble these machines. Alsowhat is trhe ratio of latex/water/formic acid to make a cake? Thank you for your input. I love your site!
@ruthmbr1 Small machines are available in any hardware store in a rubber area. The bigger ones have to be made to order. depending on your machines and drying shed 2 litres water 3 litres latex, or 1 litre water 4 litres latex. A cup of dilute formic acid is the congealing agent. Jim Email me if you want to know more. Jim

Hi, jim Last week I've been very busy searching videos about rubber tree industry.
And luckily I've found your videos which I can understand coz it english. Im from the Philippines and Im very interested to learn this industry because I bought a land with rubber trees and planning to put up a small factory for processing. I hope you will give me an update or upload another video again.
How many acres do you have? My relatives have some rubber in sri Lanka and the biggest problem for them is the rainy season. How is the labor cost over there in Thailand?
@at0977 About 40 acres and yes the rains mean loss of tapping days. Tappers are paid on a percentage basis, that way a tapper is responsible for the care of his trees. The better he takes care of them the more money he makes.

Can you get any income in the rainy days?
Thanks for the video
