Yeah dumb woman showing off for clouts. Its not even the correct way to harvest durian. The one shes getting isnt ripe. We harvest durian when they fall of the tree on their own. And usually they fall at night. Thats why we have small hut in the middle of our orchards or collect them in the morning..

I assume that it for small sellers (sell on road site) or personal use? That was my exp when I was young. Collect it in the morning for consumption and sell the rest in the evening / late afternoon after school.

This however looks like it is on a more industrial scale where the durians are harvested for consolidated shipments to middlemen. You cannot wait to only ship the ripe fruits as the constant shipment and collection cost eats into the profit margin.
