Continuous rain in Sa Kaeo (Wang Nam Yen and Khao Chakan districts) has flooded some longan orchards, blocking buyers and lล้ง from harvesting. Some fruit has dark or moldy skin, changed taste, and cracked during picking. Wet fruit needs blowing and drying, which adds cost for buyers. Buyers may cut prices for lower-quality lots or delay harvests. Thai provincial commerce office is monitoring and coordinating support. If you buy, sell, or supply longan, check fruit quality before committing and plan for lower or delayed cash flow this early-season.
