Do you think why are durians expensive?

[41Prakaimat027]

In my opinion, the durians are expensive because the weather in the area that people plant the durian trees is too hot that causes slow products.
Farmers must take care and provide good nutrition and sufficient for the growth of durians. Until the products came out, causing it to have an expensive price.

I'm still curious about it too. I see that there are many people don't like durians because its texture and its smell.
I think durians are the normal fruits. They should be cheaper than they used to be.
By the way, I have heard that durian is the king of fruit, so it's expensive.

Reasons for expensive durian are very interesting.
I think cultivating durian is more difficult that other Thai fruits.
Second, it is not easy to peel the durian's skin.

Personally, I don't know exactly why.
I think the extreme drought and the heavy rainfall right thereafter, practically ended the durian season before it even started.
So, The number of durians is not enough for many people that's why they're so overpriced eventually.

Personally, I still wonder why?
Maybe because many people like it and it’s hard to plant it.
The demands are more than supplies so that it’s become expensive nowadays.

I don't know exactly why. I only know that durians are so expensive that there will be only the rich can afford them. What causes durians more and more expensive each year may be huge demands of customers and insufficient supplies. However, I think the cost of durians may decrease because more farmers begin to crop durian instead of other crops. In the soon future, the supplies of durian may be larger than the demands, which will cause a sharply decreaseing price.

In my opinion, I think durian is hard to plant and we have to wait for a long time to eat it. I have known the information about durian that I heard from my uncle. He said that the customer must order the durian in advance for a year.

In my opinion, Durians are so expensive because it has to use lots of money to invest. In addition, it’s difficult to plant and grow it. Moreover, it has to wait for long months to harvest the durians.

In my opinion, durians are expensive because they take a long time to harvest. Moreover, the area for growing durians in our country is quite limited, so the fruite is not enough for people's supply.

Is it because it really hard to plant? I think maybe it is about the weather too.
Sometimes, it depends on the season too. Right now it might be so expensive but after August it will be normal.

In my opinion, the durians are expensive because it is hard to growth it.
This fruit is growth on the season of it.
It is not growth in every season.

[42Sucheera060]

That's interesting question!! Actually, I think it should be cheap for Thai people.
The reason for having expansive price might be about fruit marketing.
As we have known that durian is the signature of Thai fruit.
So, the merchants need to upgrade the level of durian to promote for foreigners.
That's the reason why the cost is very high.

I thought about this before, why?????
I like to eat durian as well, but it's too expensive in spite of, it is a tropical fruit and also Thailand is a country that proper for growing tropical plants. Why durian is still so expensive ????? I don't understand. If Thailand is a country that hard to grow tropical plants, I will not curios about it.
I don't like it so much.

In my opinion, because of the extreme drought and the heavy rainfall right thereafter, practically ended the durian season before it even started.
Then, there was a story about the Chinese control in the eastern fruit markets. Durians seem to be quite a popular fruit with the Chinese.
That's the reason why they're so overpriced in Thailand.

I think the reason that durian is expensive is that it is a rare and highly desirable fruit.
It is a matter of supply and demand that everyone studying economics must know.
I am the one who likes to eat durian and not dare to buy durian because it is expensive.

The reason why durian is expensive depends on process.
Durian is only available in summer and it takes many years to grow before harvesting.
Durian can grow in some areas of Thailand, so its price is definitely expensive.
It is also economic fruit from Thailand that is popular in China.

The reason why durians are so expensive because you need to spend a long time
to grow them. It takes many years before you can harvest them.
Also, you need to give them a good fertilizer, so they can produce good durians for you.
Just like Ghinggarnda said you cannot grow durian anywhere you want in Thailand.
Because of those limits, they make durian so expensive.

[41Jiraporn005]

Durian is very expensive because the area and weather in Thailand are not suitable to grow durian tree. There is some area like south of Thailand where can plant it easily even if right now in the East side of Thailand attempt to grow it up. The result is very good but the price is still hot.

I think durians take a long time for planting and need to take care intimately, and people love eating durian even though its smell quite bad.

[41Thamonwan017]

Durian is very expensive because the time that you have to grow them.
Not only the growth process, but the product is also so little most of the weight in durians are peeled.
These are the reasons why durian is very expensive.

For me,I don't know exactly why. I only know that durians are so expensive that there will be only the rich can afford them. What causes durians more and more expensive each year may be huge demands of customers and insufficient supplies. May be its taste is very delicious.
