Rubber Price Hits Record ₹300 per Kg Amid Supply Issues
Rubber prices have surged to a record ₹300 per kilogram due to tight domestic supplies and low production in Southeast Asia caused by climatic factors. Additionally, conflicts in West Asia have disrupted synthetic rubber production. To address this, the Indian government plans to include Kerala in the second phase of the ATMA plantation programme to increase local rubber output.
