The prices of latex and rubber sheets have continued to fall in Bangladesh, depriving growers of a better return, although manufacturers and exporters are offering higher rates to suppliers.
According to the Bangladesh Rubber Board (BRB) and rubber producers, 67,939 tonnes of latex were produced in the country last year, up 58 per cent from 43,000 tonnes in 2021, driven by an increase in the number of gardens and acreages under cultivation.
