“India Rubber Meet is a unique attempt to bring together all the stakeholders of the rubber sector on a single platform at periodic intervals, has few parallels in the world, said the Chief Guest Mr K M Mammen, Chairman, ATMA.
Delivering the inaugural address Mr Mammen said resilience was the very character of rubber and the sector was sure to regain its past glory, surviving the obstacles of the present recessionary trends as well as climatic variations.
Arrangements should be made to build up a strategic reserve of natural rubber that could meet about a month’s requirement, Mr Mammen added.
