How did it happen? '' -The significant increase in the price of dried cocoa beans could be due to various factors, such as changes in demand and supply dynamics, weather conditions affecting cocoa production, fluctuations in currency exchange rates, government policies, and market speculation. Without specific data, it's challenging to pinpoint the exact cause, but a combination of these factors likely contributed to the price hike.

Addtional information :

Water Management:

Durian trees should be watered during the dry season so that growth is not stunted, especially D24, which is very sensitive to drought conditions. Drip irrigation or micro sprinklers can be used for watering.

Weeds:

Clean the area around the tree in the early stages of growth using a hoe or scythe. Mulching is recommended to reduce weed growth around the tree and also maintain moisture. Weeds between the rows are controlled with chemicals or by planting ground cover beans.

PLANNING FOR NEXT WEEK'S
