Web ChangesThis is where I will announce the most recent additions to my web site. If you've visited me before and want to know what's changed, take a look here first.
The Rubber Board will announce the release of INDIAN RUBBER STATISTICS, Volume 282005Price : NA Postage: NA for Registered parcel(Payment may be done in the form of DD, cheque or money order taken in favour of " The Secretary, Rubber Board". payable at Kottayam or direct by cash). For the direct purchase and more details, contact: The Joint Director, Statistics & Planning Department, Rubber Board. Collectorate -PO. Kottayam - 686002. (Fax: 0481-2571380, Phone: 0481-2574903, Email: [email protected] ) Remarks: It will be helpful to farmers by getting it on cash payment at regional offices at real price and poor farmers can save more than Rs. 46/- on money order/parcel expenses.
Courtesy: Indian Rubber Board Remarks: By availing a reasonable price to the farmers through RPS's is a remedy for Rubber Board to strengthen it. For eg. the 14th Annual meeting of Peyad RPS Reg. No 65/90 assembled on 29/12/04 was an evidence of irregularities against farmers. One of the director board members stated that he was getting Rs. 3/- lesser than the prevailing market price. So in the same way the other farmers are also losers when they sell Latex to RPS. But they may not be aware of the fact. A comparison can be done with me by other farmers about the income per each tree from April to 24 December 2004 (I got an yield of 4 kgs per tree including scrap and value Rs. 210.08/- per tree except cover crop and grass). ANNOUNCEMTNTI send many Email letters to Department of Commerce, Indian Rubber Board, Dr.M.S.Swaminathan etc. But no reply is getting about my claim on irregularities, because higher Officials are handling the higher posts for a long period which will help them to take illegal benefits. The raw rubber smuggling through the borders are not included with production of other states. Actually productivity at Kulasekharam is higher than Thiruvananthapuram. Where does the rubber goes? It goes to the hands of manufacturers and finished products are selling with out bills to make more profits with a heavy loss for Department of Commerce and the State Govt. As a remedy for it tax may be levied per tapping tree related with average annual price to avoid the evasion of purchase taxes. Big tyres may be stamped numbers on each tyre and shown on selling bills to protect excise duty etc. The claim of Tyre manufacturers that they are giving maximum amount of excise duty & tax to Govts. is wrong. The tax is paying by the users of finished products. The State & Central Govts. are facing a great loss by tax evasion. Export and import can be done with out holding rubber under the pretext of Globalisation. All the harassments are with small growers and with small scale Industries.
