Australia is facing a significant mango shortage as it obtained less than half of the needed supply to meet demand, impacting products like mango juice and dried mangoes. The mango season has concluded, with the final batch being dried and processed. This scarcity raises concerns that Australia might run out of mangoes before the next season due to factors such as a warmer-than-average winter and a last-minute ban on a commonly used farming chemical. The shortage underscores the vulnerability of agricultural industries to climatic conditions and regulatory decisions, potentially disrupting the availability of popular mango-based products in the market.
