Here are some thoughts for dragon fruit:
The source of delicious, clean, and nutritious refreshing dragon fruit.
Dragon fruit also has other names such as pitaya and strawberry pear in the world. Dragon fruit, in particular, is often described as a combination of kiwi and pear.
Vietnam is the only country in Southeast Asia that grows and exports dragon fruit but Philippines also start to rise. The total area of Vietnam is approximately 2000 ha, and dragon fruit plantations are suitable for cultivation in hot regions with high light intensity. Additionally, the tree grows in different types of soil, including gray soil, alum soil, and red soil. Dragon fruit plantations are grown in many places such as Long An, Binh Thuan, Long Khanh, and some parts of the Philippines.

Ecological Requirements
Water, temperature, light, and soil influence dragon fruit processes and production.

Technical Skills and Care for Dragon Fruit Farmers
Basic requirements, namely fertilization, fertilization, plant nutrients and irrigation are essential. Dragon fruit cultivation requires close attention to plant management techniques, especially against pests and diseases because it can easily attact by insects.

Harvesting dragon fruit.
Dragon fruit is usually harvested one month after flowering. Dragon fruit begins to bloom from May to June but it also varies on what country you are due to climate change.

Health Benefits of Dragon Fruit
Dragon fruit is a nutritious fruit. Dragon fruit contains minerals such as iron, calcium, and phosphorus, has 60 calories per piece, and is rich in vitamins C, B1, B2, and B3. In particular, dragon fruit is not only good but also has miraculous uses in the treatment of many diseases and malnutrtion. For example: Nutritious products produced. Some country has many dragon fruit farms and is the world's largest exporter of dragon fruit. Current markets include Vietnam, Taiwan, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Japan, with only a few European countries buying small quantities. In well-kept gardens, about 70-80% of the fruit meets export standards, and the export price is 1.5 times the domestic price.
