How weather patterns destroyed Mango production?<\/h2>\n

Due to fluctuations in weather patterns, UP, the largest mango-growing state’s, yield may damage 30-40% of this year\u2019s crop.<\/p>\n

Alphonso in Maharashtra and Kesar in Gujarat also face a shortage in yield, thereby increasing the prices. But, there\u2019s a bumper yield in Malda, Bengal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
