Dung Suriya, also known as Daeng Suriya or Red Jack, is a premium Thai jackfruit variety famous for its striking reddish-orange flesh, exceptional sweetness, and pleasant aroma. It is one of the most sought-after exotic jackfruit varieties due to its attractive appearance, crunchy texture, and high pulp content. Grafted Dung Suriya plants begin bearing fruits within 2–3 years under proper care, making them an excellent choice for both home gardens and commercial cultivation.
Dung Suriya thrives in warm tropical climates and grows best in fertile, well-drained soil with regular watering. The tree is productive, easy to maintain, and produces medium to large fruits with fewer seeds and lower latex content than many traditional varieties. Its sweet, aromatic flesh is ideal for fresh consumption, desserts, and value-added products, making it a favorite among jackfruit lovers.
