The most common fruits in our life are: apples, pineapples, bananas, peaches, etc. These are the most common fruits we often see. However, mangosteen is one of the tropical fruits, and it is also called the fruit queen. The taste of mangosteen is sweet and sour, and it is especially cool and soft. Many people will fall in love with it after they try it for the first time. But such a small mangosteen, its value is expensive, generally imported mangosteen will cost more than 30 yuan a catty. You can only buy a few for a catty! I ate it before I tasted a few, and I didn't enjoy it at all!

In fact, mangosteen is expensive for a reason. The first reason is that its planting conditions are very high. Mangosteen is very strict with its growing environment. At present, it is only planted in our country, Fujian, Guangdong, Hainan and other areas, and its growth is relatively slow. It takes eight years from planting to harvesting, and it is also difficult to plant. The growth cycle is relatively long and the output is very limited, so it is reasonable to say that its price is high!

Moreover, mangosteen is also troublesome in picking, and the height of mangosteen is about 15 to 20 meters. That is to say, it is equivalent to the height of our three or four floors, so it is very difficult to pick. And although the mangosteen shell is thick, it is actually relatively easy to break. As long as it is slightly bumped or squeezed, it will be damaged. This affects sales, so you can't knock it down with a stick, you can only climb the tree by hand to pick it. It is not only time-consuming and laborious, but also dangerous. This is also one of the reasons why it is expensive!

Mangosteen is not planted in a large area in our country, but it is far from meeting the needs of us foodies. Therefore, mangosteen mainly relies on imports from Southeast Asian countries. This will also increase the transportation cost and make mangosteen several times more expensive!
