As a result, many gardeners have been selling dragon fruit for about a month and earn a high profit of over VND100 million per hectare. According to Binh Thuan bowl owners, this year the weather is unpredictable, the off-season dragon fruits after Tet produce low yields, while China’s market demand is rising sharply to push up prices. Expected, the current price level can be maintained in the next 2-3 months.
