| description |
High panel exploitation of Hevea using five different
tapping systems was studied. Upward tapping on a quarterspiral
cut every third day for eight months, followed by base
panel tapping for four months gave a higher yield per tapper
but not in terms of total yield per hectare compared to
downward ladder tapping on half-spiral cut (control). However,
the dry rubber content of the latex was lower; the time taken
to tap per tree was less; and stimulant and bark consumption
were lower. The Jebong knife or CUT knife used for upward
tapping on on a quarter-spiral cut has no effects on the yield
of the latex, but it takes more time to tap a tree with the
Jebong knife when the tapping cut reached higher levels.
Spillage problem was reduced with a sharp tapping knife.
In upward tapping on a half-spiral cut, the yield per
tapper was similar to that of the quarter-spiral cut. However,
the yield per hectare was higher, and the dry rubber content of
the latex was lower. Also, it took a longer time to tap the
tree; bark consumption was greater; and the cost of
stimulation were higher compared to the quarter-spiral cut.
There was little difference in yield between micro-x and
ladder tapping. Micro-x tapping gave a higher dry rubber
content of latex and consumed much less bark, but the
stimulation cost was higher and it took a longer time to tap a
tree.
There were no differences in the late drip percentage
among the five tapping systems studied. Overall incidence of
dryness on high panel was low. The highest net revenue was
given by the half-spiral upward tapping system over the two
year period studied. |
