Uttar Pradesh’s mango growers have shipped their produce by sea to Dubai for the first time, marking a milestone for the state’s agricultural export sector.
The shipment, comprising several containers of Hapus and Kesar varieties, was loaded at the port of Lucknow and is expected to arrive at Dubai’s Jebel Ali port within the next week.
Officials say the move aims to diversify export routes and tap into the high demand for premium mangoes in the Gulf region.
The initiative follows a government push to boost UP’s agricultural exports and could open new markets for farmers across the state.
