Kuala lumpur: No Rubber Production Incentive (IPG) payments will be made to rubber smallholders for June 2026 due to the average monthly farmgate prices of cuplump remaining above the activation threshold across Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah, and Sarawak.

According to BERNAMA News Agency, the Malaysian Rubber Board (MRB) announced that the IPG is only activated when the average monthly farmgate price of cuplump falls below RM3 per kilogramme. For June 2026, the average farmgate prices of cuplump were RM3.95 per kg in Peninsular Malaysia, RM3.65 per kg in Sabah, and RM3.50 per kg in Sarawak.

The statement from MRB highlighted that the IPG for latex is activated simultaneously with the IPG for cuplump and is fixed at RM0.90 per kg for latex with 100 per cent dry rubber content. Consequently, there will be no IPG payments for either cuplump or latex for Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah, and Sarawak for June 2026.
