Durian doesn’t forgive thin records

A row crop cycle is 3โ€“4 months. A durian cycle is 5โ€“7 years to first commercial yield, then decades of production. When the records of what you fertilized in 2024 affect the harvest in 2026, “I’ll remember” isn’t a record-keeping strategy. Most established durian estates have learned this the hard way.

Peladang is built to handle the shape of perennial agriculture: per-tree or per-block operations, fertigation IN/OUT readings, multi-year planting timelines, and harvest data that compounds across years.

How perennial crops work in Peladang

The harvest cycle workflow

Durian harvest is concentrated, intense, and over fast. Peladang’s harvest flow is designed to keep up:

What multi-year tracking looks like

The Reports hub keeps every cycle’s data joined to the tree it came from. You can compare 2025 vs 2026 yield per block, track which sections of the estate consistently outperform, and see whether a fertilizer regime change actually moved the needle two seasons later. This is information you can’t get from a spreadsheet without weeks of manual work.

Muar, Raub, Bentong โ€” same platform

Geographic and varietal flexibility: Musang King, Black Thorn, D24, IOI, any other variety. The crop catalog is configurable; if a variety isn’t there yet, add it in settings. Weather forecasts are pinned to each estate’s GPS coordinate.

What perennial-crop estates appreciate most

The first thing established durian operators tell us: it’s the first farm system they’ve used that didn’t feel like it was built for annual crops and bolted onto perennials. The block-level forms, the stage timeline, the fertigation IN/OUT โ€” these are perennial-native patterns, not row-crop patterns translated.

The second thing: it’s free. For a smallholder, that’s the reason to start. For an established estate, it’s permission to stop paying for software that wasn’t built for the crop they grow.
