Mango farmers are now preferring the cargo services launched by the Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (APSRTC) to send their produce to customers across Andhra Pradesh and those in the neighbouring States as the parcels are being delivered quickly.
Farmers grow mangoes in Agiripalli, Nuzvid, Eluru, Uppalapadu, Mylavaram and other villages in Eluru, Krishna, Guntur and other districts. Even as the farmers grow different varieties of mangoes, the most sought-after one is Banaganapalle. The other preferred varieties include Suvarnarekha, Totapuri, Baneshan, Neelalu, Chinna Rasalu, Pedda Rasalu, Kothapalli Kobbari, Cheraku Rasalu, Alphonso and Nuzvid Rasalu.
This year, people are also choosing APSRTC cargo services for sending mangoes to their dear ones as the parcels are being delivered in a few hours, says the corporation officials.
