บทคัดย่อ (EN): Expansion of rubber into non-traditional areas has been given impressive response from the Government of Sri Lanka. There is also a very positive response for rubber growing by farmers in these areas. This study was focused on the Moneragala district which is one of the districts in the Uva Province of Sri Lanka. Rubber cultivation, being a new initiative there is a high risk of resource wastage in these areas which necessitated a detail study for proper planning of this exercise. Hence, the objective of this study was to assess the existing status of rubber cultivation in this area together with socio-economic conditions of rubber farmers. A questionnaire survey was done to collect household and rubber relevant information from 255, 248 and 143 respondents in the respective categories of farmers who are prepared to cultivate rubber (potential farmers) and those who own immature and mature rubber plantations. Participatory studies were also done in these areas to assess the awareness on technical recommendations of rubber. The technical efficiency of rubber farmers was studied employing a stochastic frontier approach. The study also established the relationships between the inefficiency of farmers with farm specific and farmer specific factors. More than 50% of the farmers had only primary level education. Hence, education needs to be considered as a constraint in improving the awareness of rubber farmers in the nontraditional rubber growing areas. The higher percentage with a monthly income of less than Rs. 10000 should also be regarded as a bottleneck for the adoption of recommended technologies and proper monitoring methodologies need to be adopted in disbursement of subsidies to ensure proper use of state funds. Awareness on recommendations falling into immature phase in different areas ranged from 19% to 55% which was not at a satisfactory level. The awareness on tapping related activities was also not adequate in general since the average awareness scores for both general and technical knowledge on tapping were below 40%. The overall awareness on tapping ranged from 8% to 63% in the selected sites. The production efficiency levels of mature rubber lands ranged from 17% to 96%, with an average value of 59%. This suggests that 41% of the potential maximum productivity is lost due to inefficiency of farmers in the Moneragala district. The extent of land had a significant estimate with a negative sign, which suggested that lands with smaller extent have higher inefficiency levels. Those who practice the recommended tapping intensity had low inefficiency levels. The average efficiency observed in the virgin panel was 62% while it was 52% with the renewed panels. Those who tap their own land had higher efficiencies with respect to production. The average efficiency in the lands tapped by owners themselves was 61% while when tappers were hired it was only 55%. Those who have an education level above Ordinary Level (O/L) had an average efficiency value of 62% while those who do not have had an average of 57%.
