Bountiful year for Thailand’s Longan.
Exports of the fruit are surging, adding to Thailand’s reputation as the world's largest exporter of fresh Longan.
Most of the country’s exported fresh Longan goes to China – either shipped direct or hauled by road through Laos and Vietnam. The volume of Longan fruit exported from Thailand to China this year is expected to reach 450,000 tons, with a staggering value of 10 billion baht.
This year, production levels are high, fruit quality is good, and prices are lower. Using gold jumbo grade fruit as an example, prices of Longan in season range from US$0.45 to $0.60 per kilogram. Off-season fruit cost from US$1.06 to $1.36 per kg. In the drought year of 2016, in-season fruit of the same grade were priced from US$0.60 to $0.90 per kg, and fresh off-season prices ranged from US$1.80 to $2.10 per kg.
