Its true after having look at TV ad that a mango fan is begging for a fruit from his mango tree, meanwhile his son brings him famous mango drink and sudden twist in story that man turns to be a mango drink lover.
The same condition will be of all fellow mango lovers in coming years. The crop being less and cost of single fruit is out of reach of common people. I just had a survey of Mapusa fruit market. The number of mango fruits is less available. The price vary from Rs 650 to Rs 350 per dozen. With tense mind and having big cut to my pocket, I purchased half dozen small potato shaped fruits for 100 Rs. The famous 'AAMLECHE SAANSAV'( mango raita) dish from goa is also turns to unaffordable . The small mangoes required for this dish are about 90-100Rs per dozen.
Dear friends what I mean to say that after another 10-15days the mango season will over and for about 60% goemkars to taste the king of fruit will be a nightmare. Further I will like to add 'If initiative steps to increase the mango crop in future is not taken then the TV ad will be like this , holding a flavoured mango drink bottle in hand a teacher is showing a picture catalogue to students and says "this is dinosaur which vanished few thousand years back and this is mango which is vanished some 10-20years back."
