(Agraria.pe) The mango season in Mexico has ended and the overseas season has begun, with import volumes increasing week by week.

Mango production in the São Francisco Valley, especially in Bahia, is facing a critical situation, intensified by the constant drop in prices. Last week, the price per kilo of Palmer mango was sold at R$0.90, while the Tommy variety was sold at R$0.62, reflecting a reduction of up to 30% compared to the previous week, according to the Secretariat of Agriculture, Livestock, Irrigation, Fishing and Aquaculture of Bahia (Seagri BA). According to data from Seagri BA, the main cause of this unfavorable scenario is the excess supply, aggravated by the decrease in external demand. The United States, which is the largest destination for Brazilian mango exports, has reduced its imports in recent months due to logistical issues, including strikes at North American ports. This blockage in international flow has led to a buildup of products in the domestic market, intensifying pressure on prices.

Papaya prices have risen again in Brazil's main producing regions, according to researchers from Hortifrúti/Cepea. This increase in prices, observed after a few weeks of decline, is attributed to the decrease in supply on the market. The reduction in the available volume is related to discards made by some producers, who are seeking to increase the fruit's prices.
