The export of Vietnamese durian to China through the official channel since September 2022 opened up a new prospect for Vietnam's fruit and vegetable industry. According to statistics from the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MARD), Vietnam has over 100,000 ha of durian with an annual output of about 1.3 million tonnes. However, only 3,000 ha (3%) of the total meet standards for export to China. The Mekong Delta province of Tien Giang and the Central Highlands province of Dak Lak have the largest durian areas meeting export standards in the country. VNA Photo: Minh Trí
