Abstract
This chapter focuses on adjusted strategies for both production and utilisation of mangoes (Mangifera indica L.), lychees (Litchi chinensis Sonn.), and longans (Dimocarpus longan Lour.) in Southeast Asian highlands. It includes information on the whole production cycle from fruit production through fruit processing to marketing. We will discuss briefly the economic significance of fruit production in the area under study and define the characteristics of sustainable fruit production and processing in an area of the Southeast Asian highlands, typical of northern Thailand.
