Price Surge and Limited Longan Supply in Northern Thailand Impacts Exporters During W38

During W38, the offered price for the largest longan size (diameter >28mm) stands at approximately USD 16.53/11.5kg basket, reflecting limited crop quantities in the Northern region of Thailand. This marks a 7.25% increase from W37 when the offered price for similar longan varieties was USD 15.41/11.5kg basket. The elevated prices have hindered exporters from purchasing the remaining Northern longan crops, impacting their ability to supply buyers, including those in China and Indonesia.
