Ladies mango farmers Flip cyclone to rainmaker

Surat: Cyclone Tauktae came back the shore, plundering the cherry orchards fresh and ravaging farmers’ seasonal earnings.
However some like Bela Patel, a mango orchard owner in Abrama village of Navsari, understood the way to climb over the tides.
She saw a chance amid the calamity, even since her dropped mangoes of Rajapuri along with desi types didn’t find takers from the Kesar-filled neighborhood APMC marketplace.
Rather than counting reductions, she chose to earn worth addition to the enormous inventory of damaged mangoes and mint cash — more than what she might have earned from the APMC marketplace.
In addition to four other girls from Abrama along with Boriyach villages, Bela awoke on her powerful excursion.
“We had to make pickles and marmalades to our house, so we thought of earning in huge quantities utilizing the dropped mangoes and promote in local markets or among friends and family members,” explained Bhavnita Patel, among the five girls in the band, who left chopped mango pickles with Rajapuri mangoes.
“We’d have got Rs 200 to Rs 300 for 20 kilograms of dropped mangoes, but today through our fast thinking, we’re selling a single kilogram of pickle for Rs 200 to Rs 250,” said Bela, who’s already sold four kinds of pickles.
Even though Bhavnita and Bela produced pickles and dry cherry syrup with mangoes of the orchard, the other band member, Jagruti Patel, purchased extra mangoes from different farmers to market the cherry goods on a bigger scale.
“Together with the desi kind of mangoes, I left spiced pickles, although out of different mangoes I created marmalade and dry cherry blossom.
A few of the mangoes had ripened therefore I’ve bottled mango juice also available,” explained Jagruti, that will make use of dried seeds to get mouth fresheners.
“Where I had been thinking I’m facing a enormous reduction, here I’m getting more than what I’d have by promoting excellent quality mangoes,” explained Jagruti.
