Mango FAQ

Mango Varieties & IdentificationWhat are mango shoulders, and how should I document them?

The shoulders are the contours beside the fruit's stem end, and their relative shape can be useful in a descriptive comparison. Orient every sample the same way and photograph the stem attachment clearly. Describe whether the contours rise, slope, or differ from one side to the other, using a reference diagram for terminology. Keep the photographs with your wording so another observer can check what you meant.
