Abstract

Pre-set target yield is a concept proposed for achieving the coming years targeted yield based on technical information from the current year. The main purpose is to sustain high tapping yield with minimal deleterious effect throughout the economic life of the Hevea tree. Key parameters are previuos years yield genetic potential of clones planted composition of clones in areas where mixed clones are planted in the same task environmental factors notably rain pattern and drought and response of clones to stimulation. it is of utmost importance to maintain an equilibrium or balance between quantity of latex extracted and the ability of the rubber tree to replenish latex produced from each tapping. Other than agronomic and good tapping practices pre-set target yield is equally important because it is a useful tool towards achieving targeted yield without affecting the long term yield production and growth of Hevea trees.
