Agricultural specialists from South-east Asia reportedly helped to plant the durian crop, while Chinese specialists improved the imported seeds to better suit local weather conditions.Currently, about 670ha – or the size of about 938 football fields – of land in Sanya are devoted to the crop, with 20 per cent to 30 per cent of the trees beginning to bear fruit.
China Daily reported that since 2019, the country has imported more fresh durians than cherries in quantity, cementing its place as the king of imported fruit. In 2022, durian is China’s number one imported fruit, reaching US$4.03 billion and a total import volume of 825,000 tonnes, according to data from the China Chamber of Commerce for Import and Export of Foodstuffs, Native Produce and Animal By-Products .
Mr Sumit Khiawkhajee, secretary-general of the eastern chapter of the Federation of Thai SME was quoted in the report saying that the cultivation of durian in other countries, including Vietnam, Cambodia and China, had provided more competition. Analysts told SCMP that Chinese-grown durian could reduce domestic prices and boost international agricultural cooperation.
