The Rubber Board is a statutory body constituted by the Government of India, under the Rubber Act 1947, for the overall development of the rubber industry in the country.

Natural Rubber (NR) is the most versatile industrial raw material of plant origin. The main source of natural rubber is the rubber tree Hevea brasiliensis, native of the Amazon river basin. It was introduced to tropical Asia and Africa by the efforts of the British Government during the later part of 19th century. The rubber tree grows in a wide range of agro climates and soil conditions, if well- distributed rainfall of about 200 cm is received annually. Latex, the economic produce is harvested by controlled wounding, termed as tapping, on the bark of the tree, from which it flows out and is collected.
