While the past few years have been rough for rubber growers, all around the globe, with fluctuating rubber prices, change in climatic conditions and more. These are things beyond control. However, what are the real problems faced by rubber plantation owners in all the rubber growing countries in the world that can be tackled?<\/p>\n
1. High input costs<\/strong><\/p>\n The cost of the inputs that go into the maintenance of rubber estates and the production of high-quality rubber has been on the rise. Blame it on inflation, and the dearth of skilled labour. Rubber growers face a distress situation because of the inability to control the costs involved in production.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 2 .Inferior quality of rubber sheets<\/strong><\/p>\n The rubber sheets manufactured using manually-operated rubber rollers don\u2019t always cut. In a competitive market that seeks RSS-3 quality sheets, rubber product manufacturers don\u2019t prefer poor-quality rubber sheets for their automobile tyres, automobile parts, hoses, footwear and more.<\/p>\n 3. Farmgate price is abysmally low<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Due to increased manufacturing costs involved in tapping and production of rubber sheets, the profits earned by rubber estate owners and farmers are substantially low. This is also due to the lack of village-level processing centres to support the ecosystem.<\/p>\n 4. The high cost of post-harvest processing of field latex<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n From coagulation of field latex to sheeting and drying, the costs involved in the post-harvest processing of field latex are high. This is mostly because of the high dependence on labourers and slow drying processes. These costs eat into the profits earned by farmers ).<\/p>\n 5. The dearth of skilled labour<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Trained rubber tappers and rubber machinery operators are not only expensive but also scarce. They are often reluctant to manually enter smokehouses to load and remove sheets for they are exposed to harmful fumes and smoke. The operational difficulties faced by estate owners due to insufficient human resources are increasing by the day.<\/p>\n What next?<\/p>\n Say yes to automation! Automation of the labour-intensive tasks involved in the production of rubber sheets can solve most of the challenges mentioned above. Being the largest producer and fourth-largest consumer of rubber in the world, the Indian machinery manufacturing sector comes up with high-quality, innovative and best-in-class\u00a0coagulation troughs<\/a>, automatic latex dispensers,\u00a0automatic rubber sheeting machinery<\/a>\u00a0and green, quick-drying\u00a0smokehouses<\/a>.\u00a0Rubber machinery manufacturers<\/a>\u00a0are now setting up\u00a0rubber processing centres<\/a>, in rural areas that are dominated by smallholdings, encouraging Farmer Producer Companies to produce superior-quality rubber sheets at low cost together with adequate market information.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Distinctively re-engineer revolutionary meta-services and premium architectures.
