BoT urges upgrade of Thailand's durian production

Thai durian prices have increased from 33 baht per kilogram in the past 10 years up to 111 baht, on average, at present, suggests a recent study by the Bank of Thailand.

Thailand needs to improve its durian production to remain the top exporter amid tougher competition over the next five years, according to a Bank of Thailand report.

Thailand is the top durian exporter to China, with significant growth over the past five years.
