The Miyazaki mango, known as the world's most expensive mango, can command prices between ₹2.5 and 3 lakh (approximately $3,000 to $3,600 USD) per kilogram. This rare variety, originally from Japan, poses challenges for cultivation outside its native climate. Joseph Lobo, a farmer from Udupi, Karnataka, India, successfully grew this mango on his terrace, initially unaware of its value. To cultivate Miyazaki mangoes, one should start with the right sapling planted in a large grow bag or pot. A nutrient-rich soil mix, comprising 50% homemade mixture and 50% regular soil, is essential for healthy growth. Lobo emphasizes the importance of organic methods, using neem oil to protect the plants from pests instead of chemical insecticides. Regular feeding every 30 days ensures the tree receives necessary nutrients. Patience is key, as it may take several years for the tree to yield its first crop.
