Wet weather hits local durian yield


GEORGE TOWN: Durian lovers in Penang will be able to enjoy the king of fruits this season although only 10% of the supply are from Balik Pulau. The rest are from Taiping and Gopeng.

Durian seller Ayub Saiidin, 41, said orchards in Balik Pulau were having a small harvest this month due to the heavy rainfall in February. This had caused the durian blooms to drop before the tree could bear fruit.
