In Thailand there have been 2 major varieties of jackfruits; 1) Thongprasert - dark yellow, sweet, fragrant; 2) Yellow Malay - thick meat, no smell, light yellow. However, the Thai government is planning to promote the farmings and exports of the "geographical indication" jackfruit; Nonghaeng as a new variety. This is because this province can grow jackfruits in vast areas and high production.
