Rubber farmers in the municipality of Naga in Zamboanga Sibugay recently expressed their gratitude to the Department of Science and Technology-Forest Products Research and Development Institute (DOST-FPRDI) for creating new jobs and an extra source of income using a technology that brought back “life” to deadwood.

Thru the project "Processing and Utilization of Senile and Unproductive Rubberwood (Heveabrasiliensis) Trees for the Production of High-Value Furniture, Mouldings, and Joineries”, the farmers were able to convert senile rubberwood trees or deadwood into high-value products such as quality home and school furniture.
