Rubber seed oil is oil extracted from the seeds of rubber trees. In the latex manufacturing process, rubber seeds are not historically collected and commercialized. Recent analysis shows that rubber seed oil contained the following fatty acids:〔Shankaransh Srivastava,"Effects of Blends of Rubber Seed Oil on Engine performance and Emissions" 〕 *Palmitic (C16:0) - 0.2% *Stearic (C18:0) - 8.7% *Oleic (C18:1) - 24.6% *Linoleic (C18:2) - 39.6% *Linolenic (C18:3) - 16.3% In Cambodia and other rubber manufacturing areas, rubber seeds are used to feed livestock.〔Bun Tean, eo Sath, Pok Samkol and J Ly, "Utilization by pigs of diets containing Cambodian rubber seed meal"〕 Although rubber seed is rich in nutrients, it also contains cyanogenic glycosides which will release prussic acid in the presence of enzymes or in slightly acidic conditions.〔Gv Mallika, ER Jansz and Nirmala M Pieris, 1991, "Cyanogenic Glucosides and Glucosidases of Rubber Seed Kernel" ''J. Natn Sci Coun. Sri Lanka ''〕 Oil from the rubber seed is also of commercial importance. Hitherto, rubber seed has largely been allowed to waste with very little used for raising root stock seedlings for propagation purposes.〔Uzu, F. O.; Ihenyen, G. A.; Chukwuma, F. and Imoebe, S. O.

Board of Trade Journal. 150: 771- 773. 〕 in the manufacture of soap,〔Vimal, P.O. (1981). The use of rubber seed.

The potential of rubber wood as a source of timber is recognized in India, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, and Malaysia, with an increasing volume of sawn rubber wood used for furniture manufacturing and a variety of other applications.〔Green, L.
