It is already noticed that most of the Mangoes available in the market are available from Mumbai and this year due to climatic conditions and unseasonal rains the Mangoes has received 30% from rest of the last years.
Dhoble added, “Usually the peak season starts in April, however the climate this year has played dampener. By now, the market should have started receiving around one lakh mango crates on a daily basis, however, we are getting as few as 25,000 to 35,000 crates,” said Vijay Dhoble, a fruit trader at APMC. Of the 30 per cent of the produce that is coming to the market, not even 20 per cent is of good quality. “The rains have also harmed the ripe mangoes, thus compromising their quality”.
