WHEAT RICE PRODUCTION
AND
 LOVE FOR MANGOS
There are over 1000 varieties of mangoes in India.
Less than 20 are grown commercially.
The World's 36% of mangoes are produced in
India [18 million tonnes]. Second, on the list,
China only produces 4 million tonnes.
Despite being the highest producer in the world,
the share of Indian mangoes in global mango trade
is less than 3% - that too in the canned form. The
share of fresh mangoes exports is negligible for
India.
That means more fruit for us at home. At home,
UP produces 23% of all Indian mangoes, AP
produces 22% and Karnataka produces 11% - so
those 3 states produce over 50% of all mangoes.
 OTHER STATS (SHORT VIDEO)

India is a large country and thus, understandably

hard to grasp. To make things easier, we visualize an
India with just 100 people with the relative
composition the same as the real nation. Here is how
an India with 100 people would be like.
