It has been revealed that the production of mangoes in Pakistan has decreased this year as well. Due to the decrease in production, the export target has also been reduced. Pakistan will lose millions of dollars due to the decrease in the export of mangoes.

According to the details, All Pakistan Fruit and Vegetable Exporters Association has set a target of 100,000 tons of mango export this season.

The export of mangoes will begin on May 20, focusing not only on traditional markets but also on value-added markets in China, the USA, Turkey, and Japan. Iran, Afghanistan, and Central Asian states will also play a crucial role in meeting the mango export targets.

According to the All Pakistan Fruit and Vegetable Exporters Association, the effects of climate change are having serious impacts on mango orchards in Pakistan, leading to a significant decrease in production. Due to the unavailability of export-quality mangoes, the export target was not met last year as well.

This year the export target has been set at 100,000 tonnes, whereas last year the export target was 125,000 tonnes, but the export of mango remained at 100,000 tonnes.

This season, a trade worth $90 million will be achieved through the export of one hundred thousand tons. It has been stated that the effects of climate change pose the biggest threat to mango production, with an estimation suggesting a continuous decline in mango production for the past three years.
