The Andhra Pradesh government has announced a minimum support price of ₹4 per kg for Totapuri mangoes to support farmers facing a market downturn. The crisis is driven by a bumper harvest and reduced export demand due to geopolitical tensions affecting shipping routes.
District Collector Sumit Kumar on Monday said that State government’s announcement of minimum support price (MSP) of ₹4 per kg for ‘Totapuri’ mangoes would provide relief to thousands of farmers in erstwhile Chittoor district in view of the severe market downturn.
