Russian consumers taste Vietnamese red flesh dragon fruit
VOV.VN - A total of 10 tonnes of red flesh dragon fruit were shipped to the Russian market on August 20, according to the Thuan Chau district People's Committee in the northern province of Son La.
The red flesh dragon fruit originates from Thuan Chau La district and has recently proved popular among Russian consumers thanks to its high quality and sweet taste.
Over the past two years local producers of the tropical fruit have been able to affirm product quality in the demanding market through the application of advanced science and technology in agricultural production.
These moves have contributed to significantly improving product value and stabilising output, helping local farmers to maintain production especially in the context of complicated developments of the COVID-19 pandemic.
A local farmer in Thuan Chau district revealed that his family has earned a stable income since cultivating dragon fruit, as the fruit has great potential for export and domestic consumption in comparison to tea products.
