Description: Manuring is one of the crop activities in rubber cultivation. There are several methods for manuring practised in rubber cultivation. Broadcasting which implies application of large amount of nutrients on the soil surface, such as circle application during the immaturity period or the common method of fertilizer application during the maturity period of Hevea trees which has been practiced widely in the natural rubber (NR) industry. Based on these methods, fertilizer is spread evenly around the base of the plant in a full circle and the radius of a manuring area depends on the tree’s age. In agricultural cultivation particularly in rubber cultivation, fertilizer placement method is a new practice manuring in activities. Fertilizer placement under the soil surface can give higher probability to feeder roots for absorbing nutrients due to greatest root proliferation which is mostly at 0 to 7.5 cm of soil layer. The fertilizer placement method is carried out manually, which requires at least two workers to get an optimum productivity where one worker digs the soil and another worker fills in the fertilizer. Thus, more workers are required for manuring more than one hectare of land.
