THE current monsoon season has not affected the pineapple production in Alor Bukit, Pontian, as farmers made preparations from as early as October to face such weather before the season started.

According to pineapple farmer Khalit Kasmoin, 64, their only issue with rain was that it would force the fruits to ripen quicker than their normal harvest date.
