FRESH MARLIN MANGOES
The
Kensington Pride mango is renowned for its unique flavour
Product Description: KENSINGTON
PRIDE (Bowen)
Kensington Pride is the most popular variety grown in
Australia, making up 80 per cent of all trees planted. This variety is grown
throughout the sub-tropical and tropical regions of Australia. The major
production areas in Queensland are the: Atherton Tablelands, Queensland Dry
Tropics, Central and South-East Queensland.
The variety was first discovered in Bowen, north
Queensland, but is thought to have originated as a seed imported on a shipping
line from India. Kensington Pride is renowned for its unique flavour and is
known under several different names such as Bowen, Bowen Special or Kensington.
Although this variety is the most popular in Australia, it
is not grown commercially overseas.
In 1997, there were approximately 650 000 trees planted in
Queensland, with 800 000 planted throughout Australia, producing approximately
43,000 tonnes of fruit.
Approximately 90 per cent of the Kensington Pride crop is
marketed within Australia and the balance is exported. Eighty percent is sold as
fresh fruit and 20 per cent is processed.
Kensington Pride is the most widely grown mango variety in
Australia.
