Jackfruit finds its way to China

PETALING JAYA: After 20 years of negotiations, the Malaysian jackfruit (nangka) is set to make landfall in China, says Deputy Agriculture and Food Security Minister Chan Foong Hin.

He said Malaysia signed the Fresh Jackfruit Export Agreement with China on April 1, opening up a new market.

Chan also said the Agriculture Department initiated the first export trial after signing the agreement, with his ministry responsible for registering jackfruit farms and processing facilities that have been approved by the General Administration of Customs of China . “Our country cannot compete on quantity due to our smallholder agriculture, so we emphasise quality,” he added.
