The rains in the northern valleys of the entity are beneficial to agriculture; however, they may have adverse effects in the areas that produce mango in Sinaloa as they have paralyzed the collection and packaging of said fruit; a situation that could significantly impair the quality of the export product.
Marte Vega Roman, head of the Rural Development District 001 from Sagarpa, said that if rains continued it might compromise the quality for export so the mango would be sent to the domestic market and be used to make juices and other products.
He said there were 4,000 hectares of mango in the north that, so far this season, had produced 35,000 tons of mango for exports.
