Usage of durian pulps

A picture of D101 , one of varieties that we planted.
A couple of weeks ago there was one article released by the Department Of Agriculture stating that Federal Agricultural Marketing Authourity (FAMA) have been successful in securing a contract to supply durian pulps to Shanghai early next year. After extracting pulp from fruit using machine, the frozen pulp will be shipped. The pulps will be used as fruit flavouring for food products. Previously when they shipped to Singapore, the pulp was for making mooncakes and dumplings.

Mangosteen


In P2 there are a few matured mangosteen trees. We will try to preserve them .. perhaps plant a few more ..
Known as the Queen of fruit , this exotic fruit is especially popular during the durian season. Many would eat durians and later finish off with some mangosteen ... as they believe the fruit is anti-inflammatory and have a " cooling effect " on the body system. But one thing for sure, this fruit with deep purple fruitskin contains lots of antioxidants. The while pulp inside is simply delicious and sweet with a slight sour edge. Mangosteen tree can flower up two times yearly. It fetches very good selling price in the fruit market. Also there is growing interest in mangosteen juice as it is healthy drink.
