1. There is general agreement among economists on the causes underlying the violent price fluctuations (often in response to small disequilibria) of primary products, and on the effects of these price-swings on the economies of the producing territories. The purpose of this article is to review some figures illustrating the intensity of the great rubber slump of the early 1930s, especially in Malaya, and also to discuss some of its less familiar aspects, such as the sharp fluctuation in agricultural employment in the chief producing territories. An attempt will also be made to show the relative attractiveness of rubber and rice growing to the Malay smallholder during the slump which raises questions of considerable importance for the whole Malayan economy
