Dussehri variety of mangoes from Lucknow being exported to USA, says UP CM, Yogi Aditya Nath

The most sought after fruit Mango export to Japan and Malaysia is going to increase this year.

People in both countries will relish the taste of Indian mangoes particularly from Lucknow in Uttar Pradesh, but not at the price at which we buy this fruit here.

Forty tons of mangoes will go to Japan and Malaysia. For the first time in 160 years Indian mangoes are being exported to USA, said CM Yogi Aditya Nath.

We buy this delicious fruit between Rs 60 to 100 a kilo. But the same mango is sold for Rs 900 a kg in the USA.

The cost of sebding the mangoes to USA comes between 250 to 300 per kg. This way the farmer will make profit of Rs 600
