Hundreds of tons of mangoes are being lost in Guantanamo municipalities such as San Antonio del Sur and Imías due to a lack of management, movement, and marketing. This issue is part of a larger problem of food shortage and inefficiency in the production model. The lack of contracts and inability to move the crops is exacerbated by the harvest losses, with 2017 seeing the loss of over 2,600 tons out of a total of 6,794 tons. This problem has been ongoing and repeats annually.
