The four-day ‘Mango Utsava’ kickstarted on Thursday at the National College grounds in Basavanagudi. The event has been jointly organised by the Karnataka State Mango Development and Marketing Corporation Ltd., Vasavi Condiments, and other organisations.
Farmers from over 20 villages across Karnataka have set up 20 stalls at the mela to sell varieties of mango which are native to the State. The event is expected to attract around 5,000 people.
While the farmers have been fed up with losing their mango crops to weather variations and pest attacks year after year, the mela hopes to connect them directly with consumers so that they do not lose out on their share of profits.
from 19 April - 22 April from 11am to 10 pm
