A new framework for mapping rubber plantations through the combination of semiautomatic sample migration, dynamic phenology, and change detection variables based on time series Landsat images

GIScience & Remote Sensing
Reliable mapping of rubber plantations is essential for yield estimation and sustainable land management, yet existing methods struggle with the lack of historical samples and the underuse of dynamic phenological information.

Rubber based agroforestry systems: Options for smallholders [PDF]

, 2008
Representing more than 80% of the total rubber areas, smallholder rubber plantations and its system, in Indonesia, are very unique in the world. The system, often referred to as "jungle rubber" is multi-strata in nature, and rubber is not the only crop ...
