According to a recent paper, Pakistan growers are facing a delay in the mango season due to the effect of climate change on the mango harvest. Unseasonal rains and hailstorms, along with a longer winter, are said to have caused these changes. Harsh winds and hailstorms caused many unripe mangoes to fall from trees prematurely, while the longer winter prevented other harvests to ripen on time.

Mangoes are one of the staple fruits of Pakistan. The summers are incomplete without crates of mangoes making their way into every household and lighting up the surroundings with its fragrance. Moreover, the King of the Fruits is also a major export item. Previously, Pakistan exports fell due to the presence of bugs that were found in some crates, following which the EU and the US limited their imports. However, despite the tough competition by Indian mangoes, the fruit still stands out in the international market as it sells for a higher price due to the quality.

An article on tribune.com.pk states that given the impact of climate change, Pakistan growers need to analyse the impact of our actions and carelessness towards the environment.
