Pakistan's mango production is expected to decline by around 50% this year, as the crop has been severely hit by unusually high temperatures and water shortages. At the time of the flowering of mango trees affected production greatly, adding that Pakistan was facing a 50% drop in mango production this year as a result.
Though the heat ripens the succulent yellow fruit, the untimely early rise in temperatures, coupled with water shortages, have badly affected the crop.
When the unripened fruit is ready it requires water which helps the mango grow to a good size.
Now you can expect high prices than last year due to low production and high inflation rate this year! Also the mango season time-frame will be shorter than previous years!!
