G'day Kel. I am not sure of where you are situated. But if you are not somewhere south of Chumpon down to Krabi, forget it with regards to Palm Oil. It requires a high rainfall and a nearby mill to process the fruit/nuts. As for Rubber, i believe its a little less lucrative than PO, more work and can only be harvested for about 8 months of the year. PO is a year round crop harvested about every 20 days and from what i am told, less work than Rubber. How about moving around in your area and having a good look.
Anyhow mate, good luck, one needs to do something, bars and pole dancers get a little boring after a while and despite what my young friend thinks, is really controlled by females .... lololol.

Thats ok James, we can all have our own opinions.
The Palm oil buisness must be doing alright for the TRA to release the following info .. on the 24/01/11
Thailand is planning to reduce its rubber plantations by 815,000 hectares in the South to grow oil palm trees. It will expand rubber plantations in the North and Northeast by 870,000 hectares. A shift in the supply curve is expected from 2012 due to the new planting areas reaching the yielding stage

An interesting topic.
My Wife wants me to buy a 20 rai rubber plantation in Surat.
Her 2 brothers both have plantations and have always offered me the opportunity to buy some when a "distressed" sales opportunity comes up at a very good price, but because of my fear of investing too much but in the past I have always declined.
We have been together 9 years now and I want to make sure she has a good business to support herself when I shuffle off.
We live in CM so apart from taking care of the books we would have to rely on her brothers (who are really good people and really love their little sister) to harvest it and sell it. I would have to pay them something for that.
My wife was talking about 3m for the 20 rai, does that sound realistic?
In fact does the whole idea sound realistic to you, any pitfalls I should be looking for?
Many thanks
