Mangoes (Mangifera indica) are predominantly grown in the Northern Territory and Queensland, and when combined, produce approximately 95% of the total national crop. Mangoes are also grown in Western Australia, New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia.
Check out the National Mango Tree Crop Map Dashboard which interactively summarises the extent (area) of commercial mango crops in Australia.
The seasonal harvest starts in the Northern Territory in July/August, Western Australia in September/October, and Queensland in October/November. The season runs until March/April.
Total volume of fruit marketed fluctuates from season to season, due to seasonal conditions and the irregular bearing nature of the crop. The average crop over the last three years has been approximately 70,000 tonnes, but seasonally volumes can fluctuate between 65,000 tonnes to 80,000 tonnes. The gross value of production (GVP) at farm gate is approximately $225 million (or above) per annum.
