sorry to hear this. over the years we have lost a couple of dogs to this air born disease. the only way to stop is make sure the dogs have their jabs as soon as old enough. we have one dog that survived having distemper at 1 or 2 months old. (brothers and sister dog died) she now has little or no teeth and very dodgy bones. distemper stripped the calcuim from her body.

<br>It seems your are talking about getting this legalisation (authentication) of your signature done by mail, in which case it does indeed get a bit complicated -- and expensive -- with each instance authenticating the signature of the previous instance. In other words, you erred when you asked the Commonwealth Office if they can "legalise" a Thai document. The correct question would have been if they can authenticate (legalise) the signature of the UK public official who will authenticate your signature.<br><br>It is simpler if you go personally to a Thai consulate, if that is not too inconvenient for you. It does not have to be the consular section of the Thai embassy but can be any consulate, ie any of the various honorary Thai consuls in the UK. There you have to identify yourself, eg with your passpoort, sign the document in the presence of the consular official, and you get the authentication of your signature directly from the consulate. At least this is how it worked when I went to get my signature on a document authenticated at a Thai consulate in Switzerland.<br>
thanks,<br>yes i went to the embassy in london yesterday and was told the rules have changed, got to get my signatures authenticated, then the embassy can do its bit. im waiting on an email responce from the commwealth office, but was told on the phone yesterday can not do.<br><br>looks like i might have to fly back for a day or so! gotta love it!<br>

afew years ago a thai guy said to me on the subject of how much money will the trees bring in is to think that every tree will give you 1 baht per day of its working life : 500 trees should return 500 bahts every day??? yet to see the results but to me dont sound to far off the mark. after the ten/eleven year mark the trees should be in their prime and nearly double output for a good few years, so maybe 2 baht + a tree.<br><br>happy tapping.

FIRE and WEED CONTROL
You have now entered into an on going war with grass and weeds, Scrub cutters [weed wackers] will be constantly on the go and you will need to poison.

Nice one Jim, i am sure this thread will keep getting bumped if it doesnt get pinned.
With you mentioning weed killer (poison) are you using Glysophate (roundup) or have you another method besides brushcutting ?
I use Glysophate to control the grass and weeds but not untill the trees are 4 years of age. It takes usually 3 applications of the stuff and I don't go anywhere near it. I have one guy that is very experienced in using it and I let him get on with it. Up untill 4 years I can cultivate between the rows with the tractor and hire people to hand weed between the trees.
See photo of six year old trees, no weeds or grass
hi,
great too see that rubber is getting the attention it deserves here!
alot hard work has gone into the workings of your plantation, the ground and the trees look very good. what is the circumference of the better trees in this plantation?
the few people who i know that are tapping at present all started on trees that were 7+ years old but were at best 45cm at around a metre from the ground. have always thought that waiting for the magic 50cm was best, what do you all think/ size started at if tapping already?
from what i can see most tapping starts above the 80cm mark on the tree, but i have seen some people that have started very close too the ground say around 40-50cm high on good sized trees that would be 50cm+ at 1metre from the gound, any ideas on this???
