 (Phnom Penh): In 2021, Cambodia exported more than 660,000 tons of bananas and mangoes to foreign markets, of which banana exports increased by 27.02 percent and mango exports increased by 148. 38 percent. This is according to the report of the Ministry of Agriculture.

 According to the report, 423,168.97 tons of fresh bananas were exported, an increase of 27.02 percent, of which 376,961.60 tons were exported to China and 45,193.37 tons were exported to Vietnam. Exported to Japan 533.52 tons and Singapore 480.48 tons.

 Fresh mangoes were exported 242,483.76 tons, an increase of 148.38 percent, including exports to Vietnam 199,077.38 tons, Thailand 38,419.28 tons, China 4771 tons. Korea 149.11 tons, Hong Kong 50.78 tons and Singapore 16.20 tons.

 Duke Hun Lak, who invests in mangoes and bananas, said that the growth of bananas and mangoes throughout 2021 is really good.

 He said that the better growth of bananas was due to the fact that bananas are a crop that is harvested in rotation from the beginning to the end of the year and exported every week, unlike mango exports. Good export growth will bring many benefits to exporters and growers.

 He added that in the beginning of 2022, banana and mango will have better growth because both crops have entered the harvest season, another factor is that Cambodia can export fresh mangoes directly from the port of Sihanoukville to the target market. Especially the Chinese market.

 "From the beginning of January 2022, there will be more orders with better prices as the mango harvest season arrives and demand is high," he said. "However, we are still concerned about the lack of containers, especially refrigerated containers, because mangoes need to use refrigerated containers to transport fresh fruit for export."

 He added that if the problem of the container was combined with the lack of tariffs on the export of bananas and mangoes, it could be expected that exports in the first half of 2022 would increase significantly.
