Consumer happy, farmers disappointed

There is a smile on the face of consumers due to falling price. Mango is now available in cheap and large quantities. But on the other hand, it has also become difficult for farmers to extract costs.

Farmers say that this year production has been good, but prices have fallen so much that the cost is not being recovered.

Mahendra Yadav, a farmer from Bariyatu, says, “Mango yield was fine, but the prices have been reduced by half. The goods of many trucks have deteriorated in the market itself.”

Losses to traders too

Wholesale traders are also facing this decline. Due to over supply, the risk of storage and fruits deteriorating has increased.
Traders say that there has been an imbalance in demand and supply due to high amounts of goods in the mandis, which is expected to increase deficit.

Weather and quality also responsible

This time the weather also affected mango yield. In many areas, the quality of fruits has been affected due to irregular rains and temperature fluctuations. It has also had a negative impact on prices.

What next?

Market experts believe that the arrival of mangoes may increase further in the coming days, which is possible to further fall in prices. However, it is a good time for retail customers to buy better quality mangoes at low prices.

While the falling prices of mangoes are relief for consumers, farmers and traders are worried about it.
Many factors like weather, supply and market demand have become a challenge for common trade this year. In such a situation, it is important that the government and administration take concrete steps towards supporting the farmers, so that the benefit of production can reach everyone.
