Trivia
The History of Mangoes
Mangoes have a long history and are thought to have been cultivated at least 4,000 years ago (during the Jomon period in Japan).
Its place of origin is believed to be the area from northern India to the Malay Peninsula, which is now Thailand.
Mangoes were propagated by seed until grafting techniques were developed in the 15th century.
With the development of grafting techniques, it became possible to increase and maintain superior varieties, and mango cultivation spread throughout the world.
Mango cultivation was introduced to Japan around 100 to 150 years ago during the Meiji period.
Full-scale cultivation began after the war, around 1970, which is quite recent in the history of mangoes.
This will be the case.
