Market Demand — Durian
Global consumption & trade · FAO 2010–2023Is Durian viable in Miami?
Durian is well suited to Miami: growing-season temperatures (~27.4°C) and rainfall (~1632 mm) fall within its 20–30°C range. Durian (Fruits & Stimulants, perennial) performs best around 20 - 30 °C with a seasonal water requirement of 1500 mm / season. Run a coordinate-level audit for mapped field-level estimates and local risk context.
Growing Durian in Miami: what to expect
Rainfall in Miami (~1632 mm/yr) roughly matches Durian's ~1500 mm need, so a normal year needs little supplemental water. Winter lows near 11.9°C are marginal for Durian; young trees may need frost protection for their first few winters. Durian can be established year-round in Miami's frost-free climate, ideally at the start of the wet season.
