description The study examines whether taxes levied on rubber, coconut, and pineapple smallholders in 1975 are a major cause for smallholder low income. ' Results of the study show that tax burden on the smallholder is substantial, particularly that on rubber smallholders.

Such changes should be coupled with programmes aimed at increasing farm productivity and size of holding.
