The article highlights the significant decline in soursop cultivation in Tan Phu Dong district, with the cultivation area reduced by more than 90% from 1,500 hectares to around 100 hectares.

The high cost of fertilizers and the unpredictable prices of soursop, exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic, have further discouraged farmers from continuing soursop cultivation.
