Mango growers in Karnataka's Kolar-Chikkaballapur belt staged a bandh, demanding government support as market prices plummet below production costs. Farmers are seeking a support price of Rs 8,000-Rs 10,000 per tonne, citing Andhra Pradesh's Rs 4/kg announcement. Inadequate processing infrastructure and rising input costs are pushing cultivation towards economic unviability, with many leaving ripe fruits unharvested.
