Nurul Amin of Satkhira Sadar Upazila Old Satkhira area said, `This year’s weather is favorable for mangoes. A few days ago there was a continuous rain which caused loss to other crops but it is a blessing for mango. But if it continues like this for the next few days without heavy fog, then I hope to get good yield of mango’.

Abdul Jalil of Baganbari village said, ‘Mango yields good because of caring for the tree. That’s why 15 to 20 days before the buds appeared on the tree, I sprayed it well with pesticides and washed the tree. This will protect the hopper from insect attack. And we are happy that the mango buds are very good’.

Manik, a fruit trader in Suntanpur Bara Bazar, said, `I trade in mangoes every year by buying orchards as soon as the buds come. This year I have purchased 13 small and big gardens for 5 lakh taka. I hope I will benefit if there is no fog and big storm rain in the future’.
