Uttar Pradesh Mangoes Make First Commercial Sea Voyage to Dubai, Cutting Logistics Costs
A 12.5-tonne shipment of Dashehari and Langra mangoes from Uttar Pradesh reached Dubai via sea freight after a 25-day journey, with nearly 90% remaining market-ready. Developed by ICAR-CISH and APEDA, the post-harvest protocol uses METWASH technology and continuous cold chain, offering a cheaper alternative to air freight and boosting farmer incomes by Rs 15–20 per kg.
