Alphonso Mango Season 2026: Yield Outlook and What Buyers Should Expect
The 2026 Alphonso season across the Konkan coast is shaping up to be a strong one, following a favourable winter chill period that supports even flowering across the Ratnagiri and Devgad belts.
Early orchard assessments point to fruit sizing slightly larger than the five-year average, with brix readings from pre-season sampling tracking well above the export threshold.
Our procurement team has already secured commitments across 40 partner orchards, giving buyers visibility into supply well ahead of the traditional March opening.
As always, the first two weeks of harvest carry premium pricing and the tightest volumes — buyers planning early-season promotional campaigns should confirm allocations by mid-February.
