KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 4 (Bernama) -- The Rubber Production Incentive (IPG) for cuplump and latex has been activated in Sabah and Sarawak for October 2025, the Malaysian Rubber Board (MRB) said on Monday.
In a statement, MRB said the cuplump IPG rate in Sabah is 30 sen per kg for 50 per cent dry rubber content (DRC) and 60 sen per kg for 100 per cent DRC. In Sarawak, the rates are 40 sen per kg (50 per cent DRC) and 80 sen per kg (100 per cent DRC).
The latex IPG rate for both Sabah and Sarawak is 90 sen per kg for 100 per cent DRC.
“IPG for cuplump and latex is not active in Peninsular Malaysia for October 2025. Therefore, no payment will be made for the month,” the board added.
The IPG is triggered when the average monthly farmgate price for cuplump rubber falls to RM3 per kg or below. The latex IPG is activated concurrently when the cuplump IPG is in effect.
“The rate of IPG for latex is fixed at 90 sen per kg for latex with 100 per cent DRC,” MRB said, adding that all eligible Malaysian rubber smallholders will receive payments.
In August 2025, average farmgate prices for cuplump were RM3 per kg in Peninsular Malaysia, RM2.65 per kg in Sabah, and RM2.60 per kg in Sarawak.
MRB said smallholders in Sabah and Sarawak will be eligible to receive IPG payments from November 1 to 30, based on October 2025 rubber production.
