Book Description
Excerpt from Rubber-Growing Industry of the Philippine Islands: Cost of Production The provisions of existing law relative to the rental of public lands are more liberal than are those relative to their sale. Either an individual or a corporation may rent not to exceed 2,500 acres. Leases run for 25 years with the privilege of renewal at the end of this period for an additional 25 years. The rental price can not be less than 50 centavos per hectare (approximately 10 cents, gold, per acre) during the first 25-year period, nor more than 1.50 (approximately 30 cents, gold, per acre) per hectare during the second 25-year period. It is our custom to charge the minimum price when wild land is taken up as we are very desirous of seeing some part of the enormous area of rich agricultural public lands the islands brought under cultivation. If the product from 2,500 acres would not be sufficient, several individuals could rent 2,500 acres each and make such arrangement relative to the sale of their products as might seem advantageous to them. Favorable Conditions In Southern Islands. All informed persons seem to be agreed that it is highly desirable to establish rubber plantations in the southern part of the Philippines outside of the typhoon belt, owing to the fact that the rubber producing trees ordinarily planted are somewhat brittle and are liable to suffer injury as the result of a heavy wind storm. There are very extensive areas of public land suitable in every way for rubber planting in Mindanao, Basilan, Tawi Tawi, and Palawan, and, as you doubtless know, these regions are almost entirely free from very violent wind storms. Land in the Agusan River Valley is especially well suited to rubber growing. Land in the vicinity of the river itself has the advantage of uninterrupted communication with the sea by water. The population of this valley is sparse, and public lands may be rented there in large tracts. According to the best information which I have been able to obtain, drought is absolutely unknown in this region. While it appears to be heavily forested, much of the vegetation is in the form of comparatively small trees, vines, etc., which can be cleared away at small expense, leaving a few very large trees which may be allowed to stand without interference with the growth of any plants not harmed by a moderate amount of shade. In the subprovince of Bukidnon there are immense grassy plains covered not with cogon, but with pasture grass, which is not ordinarily more than knee high, or waist high at the outside. These lands are very readily brought under cultivation, and no preliminary clearing whatever is necessary.
