Factors Related to the Performance of Malaysian Rubber Mini-Estates

Despite the national government' s great concern to improve the socio-economic plight of the rubber smallholders, they still remain one of the poor sectors in this country. The RISDA rubber mini -estate scheme was implemented in 1979 for this concern. The major objective of this study was to identify factors related to performance of rubber mini-estate schemes.
