The National Mango Board (NMB), led by Dr. Francisco Seva Rivadulla, is focusing on research to enhance mango production and quality. The board is identifying mango varieties suitable for the US fresh and frozen mango industry, conducting consumer taste tests, and evaluating cold and hot water damage sensitivity in selected cultivars. Additionally, the NMB is developing eco-friendly mango packaging and pallet designs, with results shared at industry events. A study on mango patterns by researcher Dr. Víctor Galán aims to improve yield and quality by updating existing information, concluding that no current standard meets all desired characteristics and emphasizing the importance of tolerance to salinity and dwarfing capacity for mango stocks.
