Cambodian officials are hoping to capitalize on China’s appetite for dragon fruit, with exports to China growing by 77 percent on year in the first quarter of 2021.
Dragon fruit was the sixth most popular fruit import in China last quarter, with shipments valued at $165 million.
Yaing Siang Koma, the founder of the Cambodian Center for Study and Development in Agriculture, has committed to helping grow a million dragon fruit trees on 1,000 hectares of land in Sambor Neak, Preah Vihear province, to supply the international market.
The project is expected to will eventually create 3,000 to 10,000 jobs locally.
Last year, neighboring Vietnam exported over $1 billion of dragon fruit to the Chinese market despite a drop in demand in China.
The Ministry of Industry and Trade of Vietnam reported that over 80 percent of dragon fruit from the country is sent to China and 99 percent of all dragon fruit sold in China is from Vietnam.
Demand is expected to rise post-COVID.
