Kuala Lumpur:The Rubber Production Incentive (IPG) for September 2026 was not activated in Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah, and Sarawak as the monthly average farm gate price for cup lump rubber exceeded RM3.00 per kilogram.
According to BERNAMA News Agency, the Malaysian Rubber Board (MRB) reported that the average farm gate price for cup lump rubber in September 2026 was RM4.30 per kg in Peninsular Malaysia, RM3.95 per kg in Sabah, and RM3.65 per kg in Sarawak. As a result, no IPG payment will be issued for the month.
The statement also noted that the IPG for latex will only be activated when the IPG for cup lump is also activated. The fixed rate for IPG latex is RM0.90 per kilogram for latex with 100 percent dry rubber content (DRC).
It was previously announced that starting January 2024, the IPG would be activated if the average monthly farm gate price for cup lump rubber is RM3.00 per kg or lower.
