I am so glad to have discovered your channel! I am financing my father in Law growing 2,500 Durian trees in the Laplea mountains. The first 700 planted in September 2021 and the rest September 2022. He's working his socks off making a go of it. Then I start reading about Laos and Philippines etc and getting sleepless nights. Thank you for the positive intake
Hi, thanks for this good reserch! My wife told me, the chinese investors are already pissed because of the fruit quality is lower as the thay and malaysian fruits. I would love to see a video about pruning of the durian trees. Cu Manni
China start to grow Durian in Indonesia too, i live in US but grow Durian in Indonesia Celebes island me and my business partner grow 5000 trees now from Monthong, Musang King and Black Thorn type. Specific to China Market. Thanks for your info.
I understand the Chinese intention of developing 10000 acres of durian plantation in Cambodia. It’s innovated Ponzi scheme, we have hell lot of these schemes in Malaysia !
Durian bussing is going crazy. I have farms in Chanthaburi too and I don't even care if the price drop because right now The ROI of durian farm more than 30% in every year. This is insane.
@@TMDurianfarmer You are right but In the future there might be something elsa like rambutan or mangosteen. I am not so sure becuz I haven't done much research but I really think that they have potential to become great profitable fruit in 10-20 years. The area for cultivation of these plants is limited due to their environmental requirements (same as durian) and The demand is also increasing in every year.
I guess the types of durian will bring more choice for customers. In Malaysia, we hardly buy Monthong. We preferred local musang King 😁. I hope in future I able to taste Thai other varieties.
@@TMDurianfarmer Wondering if the taste of the Musang King in Thailand will be the same as in Malaysia. Rumours has it, that texture and taste depend on soil as well. I started my durian adventure 4 years back in Malaysia and my first tree is blooming right now.
@@222Peterek I'll be able to tell you in 2 years .I have about 100 musang king trees .I'm also interested to know the difference .How about we plan on trying each other's durian in the future I think that would be very interesting .
I love your videos. They are sensible and well presented and i can only complement you on the quality Re teh Chinese market I have been reading a lot and watching many videos about export to China. About three years ago I saw a video re export from Malasia to China and in it teh Chinese lady mentioned even if it sounds a lot the Chinese market has only point three percent of their requirements. So you are correct there is an "unlimited" market at this stage and for years to come I am nearly 80 a bit late for me and the Thais here where I live do not understand the correct way of farming due to ignorance and the dept of agriculture's incompetence You are going to make a fortune. I have twelfe Durian trees which are growing well planted similar to your large holes and I was told I am crazy and it is not the Thai way of doing things I was also told Durian will not grow here as it is not the correct climate. I live in Prachin Buri near 304 Industrial Good luck and keep up the videos especially the cost etc
Hi, just came back from Thailand visiting relatives in Nan province. Their longan trees have gotten old and aren't producing like they used to. Do you know if durian can grow in that location? Thanks and I'm now a subscriber.
It gets cold in north Thailand .I'm not sure around your area .I would definitely try a few trees first to see how they do in your area before planting a big plot.in the past when visiting north Thailand I bought some local durian it was good .Durian can't be in the weather below 7c.
Terry your channel is fantastic one of the best I’ve come across, would love to hear more about why monthong does better in your area vs gan Yao or musang king for example you indicated the locals there told you this do they know why this is ?
I have spoken to many farmers from different countries and they have the same issue.some do good and others die of.what I found this year is during the dry season some species did fine with less water and others started dying from the lack of water. We also had many days when the relative humidity dropped lower than 50 as low as 25. Some species are more tolerant of these fluctuations than others . All my trees bounced back once the monsoons started I also adjusted my sprinkler system to adapt to the lack of rain . My system now can drop UpTo 16 liters per min per tree so I can get that deep saturation around the roots.I think this is a key issue Pluss being able to keep that humidity up during dry days . Another point that I want to share is some species are more robust against diseases than others and I believe this and the weather determines why some species thrive and others don't .
Hi Terry, I have 85 acres of new durian plantation in Malaysia. I have come to understand that we don’t have durian in Cameron Highland in Malaysia. I have 2 season per year in my farm area. Durian flowering mostly depends on stress. We had extraordinary harvest end of last year, our trees knew the weather 5 months earlier than human could possibly predict, that’s why it’s still raining at this moment ( February ) ,it supposed to be dry season by now. Naturally durian trees need a lot of water to flush again after the fruiting season.
That's an interesting point about durian knowing the weather pattern change . More research should be done .85 acres most keep you busy.I manage about 10 acres and I'm busy every day always something to do.live to visit your farm one day when I visit Malaysia.
What part of Thailand are you in and I would to know why you planting just durin or why not plant ather plant in and around your during tree until you start getting furit
In Thailand that works out to be 6.25 Rai and if you use the LHTS system for growing and top your trees say 6m with a spacing of 7m between trees and leave enough space on the edge of your farm for access you can get about 190 to 200 trees
@@TMDurianfarmer yeah I've searched it on Google man. And 1 rai is equivalent to 30m × 60m farm lot or 1,800m². Here in Philippines we're not familiar with the use of acres. We of use meters² or hectares
@@thedropoutfarmer3128 I see, ya man so many different types of ways to measure land size .It took me a long time to fully get it .okay so one Rai is 1600 square meters so 6 Rai is like one hectare
@@TMDurianfarmer yeah. It is my first time to hear about rai measurements and it's from you bro just today. I don't know if asians familiar with that measurements. I think most asians used hectares. Which continent most of your viewers or subscribers bro?
Ok . I hope you're right. Just my shitty opinion and experience is "Any market can become flooded " P.s. it was never my intention to insult you're intelligence, but just a warning. 😁👍
Not when the Chinese market is only obtaining point 3 percent of their requirements as of about three years ago China has a few more people than than we realize

No worries big market
Just remember there are 1.4 billion Chinese more than the US and Europe combined
Wish I was younger
