Agalawatta, 2006) Nugawela, A.Item Clonal differences in growth parameters of young Hevea buddings and their relation to field performance(Rubber Research Institute. Agalawatta, 1986) Nugawela, A.; Aluthhewage, R.K.Hevea trees when tapped exhibited a depression of girth increment and canopy growth. Hence a high growth rate is required to maintain the growth whilst giving a high yield. Growth parameters of 5 Hevea clonal buddings were determined after different growth intervals viz., 3, 6 , 9, and 12 months to study the correlation they show with the field performance of the same clones. Clonal differences were significant, but did not necessarily correlate with the field performance. Growth rates gradually increased with age during the peeriod of investigatiion. Thepossibility of using growth parameters together with gas exchange capacities determinedin earlier studies in predicting later field performance are discussed.Item An economic evaluation of the use of rainguards(Rubber Research Institute. Agalawatta, 1993) Rodrigo, V.H.L.; Herath, P.H.M.U.; Nugawela, A.Use of rainguards can minimize the loss of tappping days and hence the loss in rubber crop. A simple model was developed to study different components determinig the profitability of using rainguard is discussed. Price of rubber, yield potential of a plant and tapping wage rate were identified as most important factors which determine the worthiness of the use of rainguards. Sealent price is also a major factor in deciding profitability. If the price of scalent is less than Rs. 20/= per kg, the profilability from both the apron and the gutter types is sameItem Effect of recovery tapping on yield potential of rubber (Hevea brasiliensis) trees(Rubber Research Institute. Agalawatta, 2001) Silva, T.U.K.; Nugawela, A.; Rodrigo, V.H.L.; Serasinghe, P.
