Agricultural Series Ecotec System

Ecotec System What's ECOTEC?

Latex stimulation using PGR gas was introduced to the rubber industry in the 1990's and this method is now widely
used in the NR plantations. It is cost effective and safe. PGR functions by delaying the plugging mechanism at the
surface of cut latex vessels. This results in prolonging latex flow and thus increases in rubber yield.

ECOTEC system is a user friendly device through which PGR gas is safely applied directly onto the bark of rubber tree
at regular intervals to increase latex yield at the convenience of tappers or operators.
Why ECOTEC?

To increase rubber yield

To save on bark consumption by adopting 1/8S or 1/4S cut, thus prolonging the economic life span of
rubber trees
To reduce tapping work load of tappers through shorter tapping panels

For optimum results, trees should be:

More than 12 years where BO1 (panel A) had been finish-tapped

Healthy with good canopy, min girth 60 cm
Well fertilized and well maintained
No bark dryness or brown bast

How to fix Eco-pouch Set?

For upward tapping For downward tapping

(HO panel) (Basal Panel)

1. Open a 1/4S cut.

2. Using stapler, fix the Eco-pouch 15

cm away from the tapping cut
by stapling the 4 corners.

3. Using cap fixer, lightly knock in the

metal cap 10 cm above the tapping cut
(for upward tapping) or 10 cm below the
tapping cut (for downward tapping).

4. Fix the metal cap 2 mm deep (see

marking on the metal cap).

5. A completed tree.
 How to fill ECOgas?

1. Detach the metal cap

2. Lightly compress the pouch to remove air from the pouch
3. Re-attach the metal cap
4. Filling around 20 ml gas into the pouch through the one-way valve

What tapping system to use?

Panel HO: 1/8S d/3 or 1/4S d/3

Panel BO2: 1/4S (t,t) d/3

Work schedule:

Gassing Once in 10-15 days

Volume of gas per gassing 20 ml - 40 ml
Fix at 10 cm above the tapping cut
Eco-cap position
Shift position every month

Note:

• Ensure weeds are controlled before applying fertilizer

• Fertilizer should be evenly broadcasted over the entire area (tree rows and inter rows)
• Apply fertilizer when the soil is moist
• Do not apply fertilizer if the soil is very dry or draught
• Do not apply during heavy rain season
• Split the application if the soil is very sandy
