Came with the land. D24s are already more than 10 years old. Only the MSW are new. Some MSW 5-6 years old, so already bearing fruit. There is one very old Durian Kampung tree and according to owner, it is the highest income generator. It bears 500+ fruit per season and he can sell them at RM1-1.50/kg during early season. For your info, Bentong/Raub durians normally produce 2 fruiting season per year. Some of the trees already starting to flower again! But then again, like I said earlier, to make income from it will be hoping for too much. As long can cover maintenance cost, it is good enough. Objective was for my playground but who knows, later plans may yield some income.

Paid about 50K/acre. Freehold but no stream. A clear river runs just 50m from the land. It is also equipped with water pump and generator. Entire 5 acres is alreay laid with water piping. So, I save quite a lot of work and it is very well taken care of. The owner worked his entire life on the land and now getting too old to continue. Was actually sad to see him sell the land. His wife told me he cannot sleep every night. Dunno true or not but if it was me, I would feel the same.

Actually, there are lots of land for sale around the area. Just need time to look round and nego for a affordable price. I believe there is no real market price. It comes down to whether you like the piece or not and if it is well taken care of. At times, it may be cheap but will take a fortune to clear and start-up.

All said and done, the land will only be mine in 3-4 month time . Going through legal process now.

Cheers,

Due to very good price of durian this season, land prices have soared.  It is now 200k/acre to begin with.  For anything that is roadside where a BMW can drive to, it is around 300k/acre.

Demand for durian was quite steady & not enough.  I believe it is very doable judging from my 3 months experience as a durian orchard owner.

Any good Musang king land around?

hi.. i hope u dont mind me quoting such an old post but i enjoy reading n re-reading this thread as it is very informative

im not into durian but i come across this piece of land.. 20m fr mainroad, next to a river, small running stream across the land, about ur price..

i wonder what are the kind of inspection should be done before i  decide to take it? the terrain is hilly, the stream part is little higher than road level..

Yup, as long as you are willing to pay.

Mau tengok mana ada tanah ni

I would suggest to buy existing orchard land.  Don't try to plant yourself, as it is time consuming and you will not have income for at least 5 years.

Many of my trees died this year due to drought and inexperience.  It is not easy, it is also not tough, just need to be committed.

Hard to come by these days to find an existing orchard land. even those who offered their land, all is either steep land or with many rocks and boulders.

I have finally finished with the cabin & honeycomb pods building, and the orchard is now open for overnight stay.  Come check out my orchard for a getaway recharge.  Visit my facebook page for more information: fb.com/boutelorchard

Pod starts from RM99/night, sleeps 2-3 adults.
Cabin starts from RM199/night, sleeps 2+2 adults.

For durian orchard owner, If you want to increase your fruit production and getting fruiting more than 2/3 times a year, I have a way to help. Would like to share some photo here which showing excellent performance. HOpe you guys enjoy it.

If you have 10acres land with good species, to make turnover of 1-2Million per annum is not a problem.
