A RUBBER PLANTATION IN URHOBOLAND

Dating back to the 1930s and 1940s, Urhoboland has large and small scale rubber plantations. Rubber trees produce white sap from which sheets of rubber are made for shipment to Europe for industrial processing. In more recent years, some rubber processing industrial plants have also been built in Urhoboland and elsewhere in Nigeria.
