Hey there is your answer.... hope it helps u ☺
Rubber Plantations are only possible in equatorial regions, due to the specific required of temperature and the general climate. The three largest countries with the production of Rubber Plantations are Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia which all account for 72% of the world's rubber plantations.

They all lie close to the equator proving to be ideal fertile grounds to carry out mass rubber plantations.

India has already tried to become a major player in this field with plantations present in states such as Kerala and kannada, both of which lie close to the equator.

Some requirements for rubber plantations to grow include:

1. 2,000 hours of Sunshine every year with at least 6 hours of sunshine
2. No strong winds, which can be bad for trees
3. Temperature ranges between 20-28 C, anything more or less can hamper production
4. Humidity of nearly 80% which means it should near coastal areas
