Abstract

Production of rubber in Tripura is the second largest in India after Kerala. But a less quantity is locally utilized compare to other rubber producing states. A large quantity of rubber is transported to different parts of the country. But transportation costs at present are not so much favorable for the firms or agencies due to frequent price hike of petroleum. Tripura’s strategic location can be exploited through bilateral trade, whether it is with Bangladesh, China, Myanmar or Bhutan. Industrialization in rubber sector in Bangladesh needs a sizable quantity of rubber. In this present paper a comparative study has been carried out transshipment network for exportation of rubber from Tripura to Bangladesh.
