Seintalone Mango: Seintalone mango special zones in Kant Pa Lu set

Sagaing region, Kant Pa Lu agriculture zone has been set as special zone of Seintalon mangoes in area of over 2,500 acres. Mangoes from the zone are exported to the market in China through Mu-Se with three ways. There are over 150 farmers in Kant Pa Lu who grow mango trees including over 3,000 acres of Seintalone and other mangoes species.

Staff Officer, Department of Agriculture, Kant Pa Lu, Than Htun Oo said "Climate changes alternate the farmers to grow mango trees. Mango trees have been grown in Kant Pa Lu about twelve years ago. Some farmers initiate growing mango recently. Among totaling over 3,000 acres of mango cultivation, there are various kinds of mangoes such as Shwe Hin Tha, PadanMyar Nga-Mauk and Yin Kwel. But Seintalone mangoes are mostly grown."

There are three methods of exporting mangoes to the markets. The first one is that the dealers from Mu-Se and Mandalay come to Kant Pa Lu to buy mangoes and export to Mu-Se. The second one is that the farmers harvest the mangoes and make packing themselves and then, export to Mu-Se. The last one is that they distribute to the local markets such as Mandalay, Yangon.
