                    [Summary] => Durian: smells like hell but tastes like heaven. This king of fruits with strong aroma and sweet taste is well-loved by Mindanaoans and it seems, is slowly gaining new fanatics in the Visayas and Luzon.


Large scale durian production started in mid-’90s. It has continued to grow an average of 11 percent annually from 1999 to 2003. While business is picking up, durian growers, like the rest of Filipino farmers, are still faced with bottlenecks in production, marketing and post harvest handling.
