High prices of Dussehri, Langra likely to come down by June 15
Jaipur: The beloved Dussehri and Langra varieties of mangoes are selling at higher prices this season due to low yield this year. However, wholesale dealers at Muhana Mandi say these varieties are expected to see a dip in prices from June 15 onwards.
According to wholesale fruit traders at Muhana Mandi, most of the varieties of mangoes have now arrived in the market, including Safeda, Langra, Dussehri, Kesar, Fazali, Totapuri, and Alphonso.
"We are getting Dussehri from Rampur, Hathras, Lucknow, and Meerut. Compared to 2024, the supply is less. When we enquired, we were told that yield of Dussehri and Langra varieties has been less this year," said Aabid Rehman, a wholesale dealer at Muhana Mandi.
He added that several factors, including abrupt weather conditions during May and ageing trees, are behind the low yield of mangoes this year.
"Dussehri is available at Rs 60 to Rs 80 per kg in the wholesale market, but in the retail market it is being sold at Rs 120 to Rs 150 per kg. Last year, prices of Dushehri in May were between Rs 80 to Rs 120 per kg in retail," said Mahesh Hardasani, a wholesale dealer of fruits.
Hardasani added that Langra is available at Rs 50 to Rs 60 per kg in wholesale market and in retail between Rs 120 and Rs 150 per kg.

Wholesale traders said they were expecting a better supply by the second week of June. "By then, we will start getting Dussehri and Langra varieties from almost every part of Uttar Pradesh. Also, in orchards where mangoes are not yet ready, they would be ready by then," said Ramesh Saini, a dealer.
