AgSur stakeholders join 1st Southeast Asia Rubber-Based Cropping Production Forum

BUTUAN CITY -- Rubber farmers, researchers, students, and other rubber industry stakeholders from all over Southeast Asia converge recently for the 1st Southeast Asia Rubber Based Cropping Production Forum via Zoom platform.
