There are many varieties of fruit; Mango is one of the most favorite subtropical and tropical fruits in the world. It is famous for its flavour and taste. It can be processed and preserved in different forms like pulp, juice, pallets etc. In India, Mango is known as the king of fruits on account of its nutritive value, taste, and fragrance. India is one of the biggest producers of mango in the world in terms of quantity as well as quality. Unfortunately, about, 25–30% of this precious fruit is wasted due to traditional post-harvest practices like packaging, grading, storage etc. This wastage can be reduced to some extent through the correct scientific and technical approach. India has good quality rich and fertile land. However, this fertile land is divided into small orchards like 1 ha, 2 ha etc. Mango is cultivated in almost all states in India and most of the mango orchards have small land holding capacity. Thus, Mango production is also limited. Alphonso mango produced in the Konkan region of the state of Maharashtra has global demand.
