As per a recent international news report, there is a new variety of mango that’s being sold at $230 or R4,518 per piece.
Apparently, it’s a Japanese mango and the ‘winter special’ variety that 62-year-old Hiroyuki Nakagawa harvests on his farm in Hokkaido’s Otofuke.
Mango is widely called the ‘King of Fruits’, and mostly grown in the summer months.
But, going against all odds, this mango variety has been harvested in cold winter months by this Japanese man.
