The only weekly read on Malaysia durian farm-gate prices by variety × district — with the wholesale spread and the China export signal. Free.
For growers, farm-gate buyers, processors and exporters. Not retail-stall prices — this is the number the trade transacts on.
Everyone publishes the retail durian price — what a box costs at a KL stall. Nobody publishes the farm-gate price the trade actually deals on, by variety × district, with the spread to wholesale. That number lives in brokers' WhatsApp. So a grower can't tell if they're being lowballed, and a small buyer can't tell if they're overpaying. Durian Watch closes that gap every week.
Volume building; farm-gate firming off the early-2026 glut floor (RM10–15/kg) — but China demand is soft, so the upside is capped.

⚠️ v0: farm-gate figures are estimated from public wholesale ranges until on-the-ground daily collection begins. We always label estimate vs collected, and never fake precision. The point today is the curation + the spread + the export read, in one place.
