Forecast of durian price trends in the coming time

According to the Vietnam Fruit and Vegetable Association (Vinafruit), thanks to abundant output and the overcoming of technical warnings, Vietnamese durian is regaining strong growth momentum. This recovery helps the entire fruit and vegetable industry achieve high turnover targets, while reducing the pressure of dependence on a few individual markets.

Experts predict that domestic durian prices will remain stable in the coming months. Export demand, especially to China, remains high, creating incentives to keep prices attractive for farmers and businesses. However, weather factors and fruit quality still need to be controlled to ensure sustainable supply.
