  15. MINOR FRUIT PRODUCTION • Minor or exotic tropical fruits also contribute significantly towards the income of small farmers in Asia. • The important minor fruits include: • durian, rambutan, longan and mangosteen Information on production of these fruits, however, are scarcely available Trade statistics show that there is a growing interest in these fruits in both traditional and new markets

  44. ISSUES AND CHALLENGES 4 • Production and productivity issues • Compliance to international regulations & requirements • Lack of post harvest handling technologies • Lacking in market information • Product development and diversification

  45. PRODUCTION AND PRODUCTIVITY The Tropical Fruit smallholding sector: • characterised by small and scattered fruit gardens • poor farm management practices • low yields and quality • production not market-driven • lack of knowledge of domestic and global demands

  46. PRODUCTION AND PRODUCTIVITY • ACTION PLANS • organise smallholder sector into commercial, viable and sustainable entities • extension workers provide production technologies to the producers • organize producers into cooperatives • enhance productivity • gain better bargaining power in market place

  47. PRODUCTION AND PRODUCTIVITY COOPERATIVES • Members’ active participation in production, post harvest and marketing activities as a collective entity: • Better information on production technologies, market requirements, prices and the market distribution network • Inter-country or inter-regional cooperation between cooperatives: • exchange of market information such as supply and demand, prices and trade requirements • exchange of production technologies

  48. Non-tariff measures: SPS, GAP, GMP, HACCP and Codex standards • Becoming more stringent and demanding INTERNATIONAL REGULATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS

  49. Need for harmonization to enable a wider access • to international markets • Develop certain generic quarantine protocols, • universally acceptable by all importing countries • A generic approach would contribute towards • speedier liberalization of tropical fruit trade INTERNATIONAL REGULATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS ACTION PLAN: Harmonization of Regulations and Requirements

  50. INTERNATIONAL REGULATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS ACTION PLAN: Implementation of Farm Certification Programme • Develop Food Safety and Quality Assurance Standards • Adoption of GAP (e.g. Malaysian SALM / Thai GAP etc)
