Similarly, king of fruits (mango) is also facing various issues due to climate change and the most important problems which are causing serious constraints to mango production are Mango sudden decline and mango malformation. These problems have emerged in orchards since the issue of climate change is increasing day by day and currently there is no mango orchard free from these diseases and leading to very low production of the crop with respect to previous years.
