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].
