description In this paper we examine the profitability of smallholder rubber production in Mon State utilizing data from the Mon State Rural Household Survey (MSRHS) conducted from May to June 2015. This paper also draws on qualitative data collected from rubber producer focus groups in Mon, as well as other interviews with rubber producers, traders, and processors.
