Animal Conservation, 2020
Hunting and deforestation are the two biggest threats to vertebrates in Southeast Asia. In the last 50 years, monoculture rubber plantations replaced large areas of tropical rainforests in Xishuangbanna, southwest China.

Economic Botany, 1953
Because of a local law, limiting land operated by any one source of private capital to 2,500 acres, rubber plantations have not been extensively developed in the Philippines, but there are at present seven plantations within this limitation in the islands.

Fungi play an important role in maintaining tropical forest diversity. However, little research to date has examined the effects of forest conversion (from rainforest to rubber plantation) on fungal community composition and diversity.

Integration of animals in rubber plantations
Agroforestry Systems, 1986This paper describes a rather unique agroforestry approach of integrating animals (sheep, poultry and bees) in smallholder rubber plantations. The approach is based on the existence of surplus family labour, utilization of interspaces between the rows of rubber, availability of cheap and nutritious animal feed and presence of favourable microclimate ...

Land-use change (LUC) in the tropics, such as the exponential rate of conversion of natural habitats into intense monocultures focusing on cash-crop cultivation, is a major causal factor of global environmental change. To understand the effects of LUC on

Tensile Tests of Plantation Rubber
Rubber Chemistry and Technology, 1940Abstract The investigation which has just been described can be summarized as follows: (1) A technique for the commercial testing of plantation rubber has been developed which is simple and precise, and by means of which it is possible to reproduce control tests, a feature which is indispensable if rubber is to be sold on a basis of quality ...

The Atlantic forest of Brazil is a biodiversity hotspot that retains less than 12% of its original area. In this biome, non-pioneer tree species with limited dispersal are the most impacted by recent habitat loss and fragmentation.

Autonomous Navigation in Rubber Plantations
2010 Second International Conference on Machine Learning and Computing, 2010Agriculture is the main revenue resource of many states of India. But due to new opportunities and higher pays the strength of the labour community is getting greatly reduced. Since the farming community is unable to sustain continuation of farming, the corporate world in now becoming the caretaker of the agricultural industry.

Manganese Salts in Plantation Rubber
Industrial & Engineering Chemistry, 1935Abstract 1. Abnormal amounts of manganese in crude rubber compounded in a gum type stock using mercaptobenzothiazole or diphenylguanidine result in lowered modulus and poorer age resistance. 2. The effects of abnormal amounts of manganese are not as evident in a rubber-sulfur stock as in stocks using an organic accelerator. 3.
