Thx for cost analysis video. I have 35 rais 5y durian remote biz ... w/ major 31% labor cost, 28% ferdelize and weed spray mtl cost, Electricity + Diesel 6% -> cost me avg $1.5k / m ... this year is my 1st harvest. Plan to minimize cost i have to improve springle system, install solar power to kill diesel pump and electricity cost as. Smart farm will help more productivity but i am newer with 1year experience.
"Living in the West, you have to keep moving." Boom, this is exactly it. And it's why I'm doing everything I can to live long term in Thailand. Back in the US, if you stop, you lose everything you've built. It generates a lot of wealth for the system, but too much stress for the individual.
Beautiful farm...would you mind sharing the distance of your durian plantation,,,,including the witdh and elevation on each rows...I have the exact flat area.like yours and water.log is my serious concerns ....
Hey Terry, I have a question for you? Do you need to have a back up generator when you live in a semi remote location in Thailand? Or better going solar?
Interesting video Terry, wish you could give us a complete picture with your starting budget and P/L to see if farming is a viable income for expats to support themselves or is it just a hobby.

Hello Terry. Your videos are verry inspiring, thanks. May you confirm : 1 tree/6x7m = 1 tree/43 m2 or 37 trees/rai How many kg per tree do you expect after 3,4,...,10 years with your way with low trees (6m high) ? Would you accept a beer around your home next time I come in thailand, I have so many questions to ask to help me to start this new dream ?
Rule of thumb for fruit production a 4:year old tree should not have more than 5 fruit 5 year old 15 six year old trees 25 but this all depends how big your trees are at these ages. Could be more or less depending how well your trees are growing .my trees are big growing very well and we expect above those numbers with most of our trees ..sure you can come by more than happy to drink a few beers and I'll tell you all I have learned from being a durian farmer .
