Mango Season Update
INDIAN MANGO SEASON
USDA inspectors expected are in India for the Pomegranate season- they might return at the end of the season in March and a new set of mango inspectors might come into arrive in India at the end of March- we expect them to start their work from first week of April.
Alphonso Mango: Flowering in Ratnagiri is normal and on schedule.
Mancurad and Payri Mango (from Goa): 2-3 shipments expected this year.
Andhra mangoes:
– Banganpalli expected to be ready mid May.
– Additional orchards added for Banganpalli, Rasalu and Himayat this season. We will be trying to access multiple regions so that we can choose the best crop each week. Also, with multiple regions, we have better luck when trying to select Rasalu and Himayat- in case one region is not good, we can still get something from the other region. With multiple teams in multiple regions, we hope to not only get the best Banganpalli, but also get it for a longer time.
– Mallika, Totapuri, Malgova season is on schedule.
Kesar mango: Additional processing centers expected to be ready in Ahmedabad and Gir. This will improve the logistics for Kesar.
Langra, Dussehri: Dussehri is expected to be ready by second week of June in Malihabad and the Banarasi Langra is expected to be ready by the third week. The season for each variety is about 2 weeks and we expect to get 2 shipments of each.
