Abstract: The rubber industry in Shanwei Reclamation Area has grown into a leading industry in the reclamation area, but there are some problems in rubber plantations such as wind damage, neglect of supporting construction for shelter forest in the planting plan, and lack of rubber tappers. For the sustainable development of rubber farming, it is necessary to select the appropriate plot to plant rubber based on the habitat requirements of rubber trees; plan the supporting construction shelter forest network in cultivation of rubber trees; build organic rubber plantations, produce high-quality natural rubber and increase the output value of rubber plantations; use new tapping system to reduce tapping labor, improve tapping benefits and increase income of rubber tappers.
