    A reply received from the Secretary


    Sir,
    I am sorry to say that you are wrong. I was analyzing the Indian Rubber Statistics from 1999 onwards. By purchasing Annual Rubber Statistics published by the Rubber Board periodically. Kindly verify the following spread sheets published online. If I done a mistake I have to correct the same.

    1. https://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=p1eoUtcZuHJe6-4Gmawp_MA

    2. https://sites.google.com/a/keralafarmeronline.com/missing/

    Also refer:- http://rubberboard.org.in/monstatsdisplay.asp
    and http://rubberboard.org.in/IRS_Vol33.pdf

    I request the Secretary of Rubber Board to verify the above analysis published by me and give me a reply as soon as possible.

    The latest annual rubber statistics Vol 35 of 2012 also purchased by me to compile the details published by the Rubber Board.

  • The international price of RSS 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 at Bangkok, Thailand are collected and converted to INR by the Rubber Board to publish on the site. Price Latex 60% drc and SMR 20 at Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on the same manner. Domestic market price at Kottayam and Kochi collected and published by the Board. The sister concern of MRF the printed media Malayalamanorama publishing daily the price of RSS 4 and 5 below 3 rupees on Rubber board price. The same market price is followed by the local Dealers in Kerala. Thus purchase by the small scale dealers as ISS is a common factor. The profit divides between middlemen and the quality sheets will reach MRF go-down at low rate on a comparison of grade.

    The monthly rubber statistical news http://rubberboard.org.in/monstatsdisplay.asp published by the Rubber Board can’t tally the monthly average price of Latex 60% drc http://rubberboard.org.in/monthlyrubberprice.asp Here is an evidence of Export of wet weight of 16056 Tonnes exported at higher price when the drc was 9634 Tonnes. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?hl=ml&key=0AsBRb8VTiF95dHF0UkpsbEk1S0dsdzRvQUszZTZlVGc&gid=1 The exporters of natural rubber is controlled and licensed by the Rubber Board. The low priced export available in the spread sheet updated from Indian Rubber Statistics vol 35 of 2012. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?key=0AsBRb8VTiF95cFRzWENaU3gzUWttdHZrSnBlemdLRXc&output=html The export of Natural Rubber from India to Malaysia for the year 2011-12 was 4273 Tonnes at a value of 688,000,000 rupees at an average of 161.01/kg. As per the instructions of WTO Malaysia can implement an anti dumping duty which may be the deference between market price and imported price.

    The benefits of export import from WTO are encouraged by the irregularities on price. it may be the reason for the deposits of black money at Swiss Bank. The names of Arun Mamen and Rahul Mamen related with black money we know from the English and Hindi Media. Malayalam media knowingly avoided their name from publishing. the data of import published by the rubber board is not sufficient to calculate the irregularities. https://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=p1eoUtcZuHJfjLuKYZwqKHA

    An analysis of Indian Rubber Statistics published by a Farmer is not available in any other sites. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?key=0AjJUDQUJ7CS-cDFlb1V0Y1p1SEplNi00R21hd3BfTUE&output=html which contains a missing figure obtained from the total availability by adding opening stock, production and import can’t tally by the subtraction of export, consumption and balance stock. http://sites.google.com/a/keralafarmeronline.com/missing/ Missing is always not the same. It will continue for few years as negative and positive alternately. negative missing is that which figures of balance stock is greater than actual stock and positive missing wise versa. This missing had a great role in price fluctuation. When the stock is higher Rubber Board publishes a positive missing (Stock below actual) to permit the import with out anti dumping duty.

    The joint venture of political parties, bulk dealers, rubber board and the media are responsible for the price fluctuation of natural rubber. The speculation of media is supported by the statistics and economic experts.

    Rubber Board is responsible for the price fluctuations of natural rubber not  only in India, but also at International market

  • Translated the document in Hindi from Malayalam  and shared with Sri Arvind Kejriwal with edit option. I am confident that he should understand the details of corruption of Rubber Board led by Political Parties. An open challenge with rubber growers done by this statutory body is supported by the Indian Media. We have to change it. AAP Kerala can do a good job to spread the irregularities in front of common man at grass root level.

  • Ref: Year 2011-12 April | May | June | July | August | September | October | November | December | January | February | March

    Can you imagine how India got the productivity of 1819 kg/hectare in 2011. It is a mathematical game. Highest monthly production and lower balance stock at the end of December. World statistics covers from January to December and India April to March. Thus a comparison is impossible.If 90067 Tonnes for the year 2011 is +Ve missing how the productivity increased?

    Will be published
