Mango production in Florida

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Florida is the largest producer of mangoes in the United States.

History

The first commercial mango orchard in Florida was planted in 1833.[1] Mango growing and breeding was a hobby of wealthy men in South Florida including Henry Ford and Thomas Edison.[2]

As a craft beer industry developed in Florida beers which included mango began to appear.[3] In 2021 Florida was the largest producer of mangoes in the United States.[4]

Season

In the Florida Keys mango season is May-July.[5]

Risks

Outside of South Florida frost is an issue with Central Florida providing marginal production with adequate protection.[6]

Variable weather can make the harvest unreliable.[7] South Florida has significant hurricane risk.[8]

Culture

The Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden in Coral Gables, Florida hosts the annual International Mango Festival.[9]

Key West holds an annual Mango Festival,[10] in the Keys a "mango fairy" is said to leave ripe mangoes for people.[5]

Breeding

Florida is home to a number of mango breeders. In the 21st century the University of Florida has used genetic profiling to improve the industry.[4]
