Pineapple farmers may sell their produce at PTT stations in Thailand

Thai farmers are welcome to sell their pineapples free of charge at the forecourt of any PTT petrol station in Thailand.

PTT executive vice president Jiraporn Khaosawas said the state-owned oil company made the decision after the price of pineapples had fallen as low as Bt2.20 ($0.07) per kilogram at a time when farmers had to invest about Bt4.60 ($0.14) per kilogram.

An article from The Nation also reported that PTT has also coordinated with local officials and will allow pineapple products to be sold at PTT headquarters until the end of June.
