    • Opening Session

      The RUBIS Project is the fruit of a long-term French-Indonesian collaboration. Today, the natural rubber socioeconomic and environmental issues question our research practices and directions, which have a slight impact on rubber cultivation. In that respect, our previous scientific consortium was expanded with socio-economy, agronomy, and agroforestry disciplines with scientists from.

    • WP0

      The RUBIS project is a project that supports the rubber development program in the long term. This activity is an initiative activity in a participatory scheme for a resilient rubber cultivation system for smallholders in the context of global change. Programs include repeating scientific questions and agricultural-based solutions to respond to rapidly changing socio-economic and environmental constraints. Also, the capitalisation of multidisciplinary and participatory studies is carried out to be useful for the application of on-farm evaluation trials. Ultimately, the feedback from in-farm evaluation trials should lead to adjustments for better system robustness.

    • WP1

      The objective: WP 1 is aimed to identify the representative of stakeholders and their typology in Indonesia as well as socioeconomics constraints and stakeholders’ demand. This statement should lead to a co-construction of solutions for resilient rubber-based cropping systems in Indonesia in a context of socioeconomics and environmental pressures.

    • WP2

      The objective: WP 2 is aimed to characterising the performances of RAS (typology from WP1) in terms of productivity and provision of regulating ecosystem services, and identifying the eco-physiological traits to be targeted by breeding programs (WP3).

    • WP3

      The objective: Classes the rubber clones according to the agronomic and physiologic capacities in order to facilitate the selection of material for further on-farm large-scale
      trials. The traits will be selected for matching with the cropping systems identified by stakeholders (WP1) and with a possible tolerance to predicted environmental constraints (WP2).

    • WP4

      The objective: Integrate project data and information from WP1, WP2, and WP3, design both planting packages, experimental network and tools for further establishment and monitoring of on-farm trials, the proposal for funding on-farm trials, and identify new research questions for a new research proposal.

  • Third RUBIS Multi-Stakeholder Workshop (MSHW3). Designing adaptive technical packages for a sustainable rubber and food production by smallholders in a context of climate change

    Third RUBIS Multi-Stakeholder Workshop (MSHW3)
    The Third RUBIS Multi-Stakeholder Workshop (MSHW3) was organized by UGM in Yogyakarta from November 28 to 30, 2023. This workshop is the last of a series of workshops involving actors of the natural rubber sector. The workshop gathered scientists and representatives of stakeholders in the aim of designing adaptive technical packages for a sustainable rubber and food production by smallholders in a context of climate change. The workshop was organized around four main sessions: (1) Objectification of issues and solutions identified by MSHW2 participants at the level of the value chain to complete the terms of reference; (2) Identification of adaptive technical packages for smallholders; (3) Co-design of adaptive technical packages for rubber smallholders based on terms of reference written by stakeholders; (4) Setting up an experimental design for adaptation trials.
