The smallholder sector is a dominant rubber sector in Malaysia occupying the hectarage ratio of 3:1 and produced 79.1% of total production of 1.6 million tonne in 1987. There are some 5000,000 smallholders dependent on their rubber holdings. With the productivity lagging behind the estate sector and the importance of socio-political stability, concerted and co-ordinated effort is needed in transferring the technology. Since 1981, TOT activities have been intensified, hence an attempt to evaluate its effectiveness. [Author's abstract].

The Rubber Workshop was held primarily to help identify priority problems facing the natural rubber industries of Southeast Asia. The focus was on the processes of structural change which had been occurring in the recent past, especially in the two major producing countries, Malaysia and Indonesia. The roles of research, technology, economic trends and policies were examined, with particular emphasis on their implications for the development of the smallholder rubber sectors. Smallholders now produce the bulk of the world's natural rubber whereas the plantation sectors had this distinction less than 25 years ago.
