is not fibrous. Extremely juicy with a sweet

can be eaten fresh, and is also ideal for
adding to fruit salads, warm dishes,
desserts, and smoothies.

The globalization of mango production and consumption is a relatively new phenomenon in the West. According to the United Nations, over the past ten years, trade in mango products have tripled to over USD 2 billion per year.

Mango products include fresh fruit and processed ones including dried, frozen, puree, beverages and sweets & desserts. Risk mitigation in the Mango sector is uniquely positive due to the fact that the Mango has multiple end uses. If of one of the end uses falls out of favor, the remainder end uses will quickly take up any slack.

Agriculture has become an attractive investment destination for a number of reasons.

Most important of all are the strong market fundamentals in support of the sector, on both the demand and supply side. An increasing population, changing demographics, reductions in arable land and climate change have led to an urgent need for more food and increased productivity.

Food along with water and air is essential for human life. High levels of food security are necessary for human existence but it is also imperative to global and country specific economic growth, stability and prosperity.

Low levels of food security place significant stress on government expenditures and populations. It forces governments to invest substantial resources in the short-term through programs and subsidies. It also increases their reliance on food imports which is detrimental to long term food self- sufficiency. The FAO has reported that high rates of malnutrition can lead to a GDP loss of as much as 4-5%.

There will be 9.6 billion people in the world by 2050, that will require more than 70% more crops than we have today. This combined with a reduction in arable land and the effects of climate change means drastic change is needed. Significant investment is required into the agricultural sector in terms of capacity and more efficient sustainable methods of production.
