The Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Cooperatives of Thailand, Ms. Mananya Thaiset, has implemented quality control measures for durian exports to China during the 2023 production season. This includes inspecting every shipment and ensuring that only durians that meet standards are exported. The Department of Agriculture will also inspect frozen durian imports and exports, and will suspend exports if they find non-compliance with export standards. The department is also considering increasing staff and equipment to support durian inspection for export as volume increases.
