Rubber grafting in Malaysia is a horticultural technique used to propagate rubber trees (Hevea brasiliensis) by joining a scion (a young shoot) from a desirable rubber variety onto a rootstock. This method enhances disease resistance, improves growth rates, and ensures higher latex production. Grafting is particularly important in Malaysia's rubber industry, as it allows for the cultivation of superior rubber trees that can meet market demands. The technique also contributes to the sustainability of rubber plantations by enabling the use of high-yielding varieties.
Rubber selling prices are quite high in Malaysia. Workers who collect and sell the rubber could get atleast RM 50+ for each kg, I guess.
1] In Malaysia,rubber cultivation is done on a large scale but in India,it is not done on such a large scale as compared to the former. 2] Malaysia is the leading producer and exporter of natural rubber in the world. 3] Malaysia lies on the equatorial belt,and the conditions are more favourable as compared to that in India.

Hey there! My understanding of bud grafting is that it is grafting with a single eye or bud. Normally performed at the height of the growing season by inserting a dormant bud into a shallow slice under the rind of the tree. The bud is sealed from drying and bound in place. There are many styles of budding depending on the cutting and fitting methods, the most popular being shield budding. Other budding styles include the inverted T, patch budding, double shield, flute budding and chip budding.
Rubber trees grow naturally in Brazil in the rain forest. People like to grow specific crops together on farms. The Brazilian rain forest is not a good place for farms. Malaysia was a place where it was possible to create farms for rubber trees. As a result that is where they were planted. The advantage of cultivation of natural rubber in Malaysia is because it is possible.

The top 5 rubber producing countries are Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, India, and Vietnam. These countries are major producers due to favorable climate conditions and large-scale rubber plantations.
Thailand is the largest producer of rubber in the world, accounting for a significant percentage of the global rubber production. The country's natural rubber industry is a key economic contributor, with plantations spread across various regions.
