From market favourite Alphonso to native, once-endangered kalapadi, farms bring late-blooming varieties to Chennai, despite unseasonal rains in flowering season
Nirupama Reddy, of the Chennai-based Hanu Reddy Mangoes, says that their harvest has been delayed this year and sales began only in June. “There was a delay in flowering at our mango grove. At our organic farms in Nellore, Andhra and at Guduvanchery near Chennai, we have harvested Banganapalli and imam pasand mangoes. We harvest the fruits a little early, in such a way that it reaches the customers at the right stage of ripening,” she says.More Related News
