KUALA LUMPUR: Farmers who wish to grow durian trees, espe­cially the Musang King or D197, must learn the right planting methods and vary their crop in order to achieve the best quality, says the Agriculture Department.

Serdang Agriculture Department Horticulture Division assistant director Mohd Auzaie Komarudin said although Musang King, also known as Raja Kunyit, was the most sought-after durian, farmers should grow at least three other varieties on the same farm.
