Is the price of Taiwan Ai Wen mango expensive when it is ripe? Avon, how big is a mango? is it only in Taiwan?

Aiwen is the most popular and best quality mango variety in Taiwan. There are 7,800 hectares of Ai Wen orchards in the country, with the largest number of species in Tainan County, as high as 4,200 hectares. Ai Wen, also known as American mango or apple mango, is a new variety introduced by the Agricultural Restoration Association from Florida in 1949, and is now grown in Mexico, Australia and other places. It was first planted successfully by Mr. Zheng Hanchi, who was born in Yujing Dou Liu Tsai. Han Chibo recalled that he encountered many difficulties and studied many planting methods, including wrapping mangoes in a net to prevent insects, and so on. It was only in 53 that he had a little harvest. Because of the unique style of the varieties, they were very popular as soon as they were put on the market. At that time, the wholesale price of a jin of Ai Wen was as high as 15 yuan, but at that time the wage was only 60 yuan a day. Mangoes harvested a lot of land could buy a building in Yujing, causing a wave of seed grabbing for Ai Wen.

Ai Wen mango belongs to the "red in the cluster" mango. It has a beautiful color without ripening or ripening. The flesh is thick, the color is orange, the stone is small, it tastes delicate without fiber, and it is juicy. Among the many mango varieties in Taiwan, their aroma and taste have not been on a par with Aiwen for decades. However, Aiwen is a relatively delicate mango variety, easy to get diseases, and needs careful care to produce delicious fruit, so the production cost is relatively high.

Ai Wen's production season began in early April and lasted until the end of July and the beginning of August. However, the most delicious season is between the end of June and mid-July, when Aiwen is not only sweet and ripe and fragrant, but also the most abundant, and the price is the lowest of the year. Most of the Ai Wen I ate before May came from Pingtung, because it was early and the price was high, but it was not necessarily delicious. The secret of choosing Aiwen lies in the fragrance. The stronger the fragrance is, the more ripe it is. There is no fragrance at all, even if the appearance has turned red and the inside is not mature. The color should be red and bright, and with fruit powder, but it is best not to appear pig liver-like dark red. It usually tastes better when it is cooked and softened a few days after harvest. Love is not the bigger the better, as long as it is well planted, it is delicious, big or small. The small Ai Wen, which weighs about 250 grams, is also known as the sweet bead. It tastes particularly sweet. In Taiwan, because there is a big psychological blind spot in the market, the price is particularly cheap, which can only be described as good quality and low price.
