Durian news today 5/2/2025

Durian exports to China have slowed down due to long customs clearance times. Some businesses have reported that it takes a whole week to complete a shipment, whereas previously the goods would have gone very quickly.

According to statistics, durian exports in the first quarter of 2025 decreased by 61%, to 98 million USD. The Chinese market still holds the number 1 position, with a value of 49.6 million USD, down 78%. Currently, durian is in full harvest, but difficulties still lie ahead as the speed of customs clearance of goods is still very slow.

The Department of Agriculture and Environment recommends that farmers ensure that their products meet food safety standards as required by importing countries or international standards to easily access demanding markets in order to expand markets in the future. At the same time, invest in advanced technology and farming techniques to improve durian quality.

Businesses need to invest in processing durian products to increase their value. Encourage cooperatives linking farmers and businesses to create sustainable supply chains, helping to stabilize prices and improve consumption efficiency. Farmers and businesses need to focus on quality, diversify products and expand the durian market to overcome the current difficult period.
