The Rubber Authority of Thailand (RAOT) has announced the success of auctioning EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) compliant rubber via the Thai Rubber Trade (TRT) system. As a result, the price of rubber sheets soared to 96.66 baht per kilogram, marking the highest in 12 years.
The export of Thai rubber under the EUDR, effective from June 29th, 2023, covers seven product groups. The regulation, which promotes environmentally conscious agriculture, will be fully enforced from December 30th this year. The RAOT noted that high demand for EUDR-compliant rubber has driven rubber sheet prices to a 12-year high. The RAOT has encouraged farmers to adopt sustainable and eco-friendly farming practices to comply with the EU’s EUDR and international standards. The TRT system enhances data collection and traceability of rubber origins. Industrial Rubber Sheet

The RAOT has systematically prepared for the EUDR regulations by maintaining detailed farmer registration records. The auction will be held every Thursday, with regular rubber sheet prices at 85 baht per kilogram. Interested farmers are urged to register with the RAOT.
