PERUVIAN containerised mango exports have fallen 36 per cent a week overall year on year because of bad weather and illegal mining, reports Fresh Plaza, the fruit shippers' news portal.

Overall Peruvian mango export volume posted a 50 per cent drop year on year because of climate factors, according to Juan Carlos Rivera, manager of the Peruvian Association of Mango Producers and Exporters (APEM).

The main destinations for Peruvian fruit are the Netherlands (43 per cent), the United States (37 per cent) and the UK (seven per cent).

Mr Rivera estimated that during the production of April 2011 - March 2012 some 63 tons will be exported, which represents a decrease of 52 per cent compared to 130,000 tons exported in the period of April 2010 - March 2011.
