The natural harvest in Binh Thuan runs May to September and is the cheapest fruit of the year. The band drawn as peak is the other one: growers light the orchards at night from about October to flower the crop out of season, and that is the fruit the export programme into Hong Kong and mainland China is built on, running into the Lunar New Year weeks.
So the calendar reads backwards from most on this page. Availability is close to constant and the question is price, which turns on which crop is on the vessel rather than on whether there is one.
Last reviewed August 2026. Editorial ranges for a normal year, not a published schedule. Weather moves them, sometimes by weeks.
