Hi Linh1,

It's a black Genoa, a common type growth in Australia. It has 2 crops per year. Breba is a small crop but bigger fruit (elongated shape) produced in spring on the older wood. The main larger crop is produced in late summer on the new seasons growth.
When the moisture is high the ripe fig may be cracked. It happens when overwater or rain occurs. If you can control/reduce the water then it will help. Cheers.
