Data collection to facilitate supply chain transparency – stage 3 (MG15003)
What was it all about?
Beginning in 2016 and ending during 2018, this investment represented the third iteration of the industry’s ongoing data collection project, tasked with providing growers and other industry participants with timely domestic information on two key factors that can influence profitability: mango wholesale prices and eating quality.
During the season, project activities included publishing daily and weekly wholesale prices, which were made available here and also through industry communication channels. The regular provision of this independently collected data was intended to give growers clear signals on market conditions, allowing sound business decisions to be made throughout the season. Regarding mango quality, reports of mango maturity at major wholesale markets also continued to be produced and were circulated through the My Mango e-newsletter.
This work was subsequently continued by a new phase in the data collection initiative.
