The objective is to provide potential mango growers in the Northern Kwa-Zulu Natal right against Swazilands southern border with updated financial indicators regarding the profitability of the fruit. The revised budget is based on a more realistic yield range of 4.5 tons per hectare, rather than 8 to19.5 tons/ha. This is based on average yield achieved by commercial producers in the Northern Kwa-Zulu Natal region during the past few years who have adopted the best practice approach.The costs of fertilizers, paclobutrazol, irrigation, pruning and pest and disease control have also been updated according to current recommendation and normal industry practice.Mango production in the Republic of South Africa and in the Northern Kwa-Zulu Natal is projected to increase in the future as more trees mature. Consequently, unless export volume is increased substantially, domestic mango prices will be under further pressure in the future.
