What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Malaysia Durian Exporters Association stated that climate conditions in Hainan are hindering the scale-up of durian production in China. The association noted that Hainan's temperatures are not consistently warm, and nighttime temperatures can drop to 16C, making it difficult for durians to flower and ripen.

These climate challenges suggest that China's domestic durian cultivation efforts are unlikely to pose a significant threat to Malaysia's industry currently. Malaysia's reputation for premium-quality durians remains a key advantage in the global market.
