The purpose of this research was to analyze the competency of natural rubber production by an induction research process. The research was divided into two phases: 1) to study and select natural rubber production knowledge by considering only the products that farmers can produce in Chang Klang District, Nakhon Si Thammarat and 2) to analyze the competency of natural rubber production by conducting in-depth interviews. The sample group of rubber farmers were selected by purposive sampling for 5 people under the condition of being the farmers in the southern agricultural vocational education institute network.
