Durian prices today remain stable in major growing regions across the country, according to a survey from chogia.vn, but the short-term outlook shows clear signs of differentiation, especially in the context of Thai durian exports facing difficulties due to strict inspection regulations from China.

On April 7, Ekaphap Phonsue, a spokesman for Thailand's Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives, said reports that there were no more laboratories in Thailand that could provide pre-export testing of durians due to the suspension by China were incorrect.

Four labs remain available, with five others awaiting approval from GACC. Two labs are also requesting to resume testing, according to the Nation.

He said Thailand has also asked China to ease inspection procedures for durian from Thailand but has yet to receive a response.

BY2 is a yellow powdery organic compound commonly used to dye fabrics, paper, leather and house paint. The World Health Organization (WHO) has classified it as a group 2B carcinogen.

If Thai exporters do not provide laboratory test reports confirming the absence of BY2, Chinese customs at all inspection stations will reject durian cargo.

Ekaphap stressed that the ministry is actively addressing the situation and urged farmers to rely on official information from the ministry, as online reports can be confusing.

Meanwhile, Agriculture and Cooperatives Minister Narumon Pinyosinwat expressed concern over the export of durian to China and assured that there are enough laboratories to handle the large volume expected in May.

Exporters can check the list of authorized laboratories for BY2 and cadmium testing on the ministry's official website, Mr. Narumon said.
