Nine varieties including Yakta, Anwar Lator, Black Chaunsa, White Chaunsa, Dosehary, Langra, Fajri, Chaunsa Summer Bahisht have been registered from Punjab province, while one variety namely “Sindhri” from Sindh province, they added, From Punjab province, five varieties were registered by MRI and another four varieties were registered by growers themselves. However, MRI facilitated the growers in the registration process. The both officers told APP that last year the country made record exports of 127,000 tonnes.
They added that the export of the exotic fruit would increase further as registration of the fruit with FSC&RD would improve mango marketing in various lucrative and super markets of the world. Supermarkets have Fruit-Chain shops and these markets prefer to give space to registered fruits only.
