West Bengal alone accounts for 26 of India's 50 mapped mango-variety associations

A live web scan mapped 50 state–variety associations of famous mango cultivars across 11 Indian states. Counts are associations, not unique cultivars: a variety such as Neelam or Fazli can appear in more than one state. Each marker sits at a representative state-level point, not an orchard or cultivar-origin location.

Bubble area and colour depth both encode the number of associated varieties — the deeper the mango orange, the more varieties tied to the state. Hover a bubble for the full variety list.

West Bengal's 26 associated varieties — from Himsagar and Kohitur to the Japanese Miyazaki — are more than the other ten mapped states combined (24). ffcampaignforchildren.org

Neelam is the most widely shared cultivar in the scan, appearing in Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu; Fazli and Gulab Khas each link West Bengal with Bihar, and Langda links West Bengal with Uttar Pradesh. paudhewale.com

Four states — Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Karnataka and Maharashtra — tie for second place with 4 varieties each, including exported names like Banganapalli and Alphonso. enrouteindianhistory.com

Five states appear with a single signature variety each: Kesar in Gujarat, Mancurado in Goa, Sindhura in Kerala, Neelam in Tamil Nadu and Banganapalli (Safeda) in Telangana. freshplaza.com

Data: 11 rows from a live web scan of pages naming famous Indian mango varieties, one row per state, 50 state–variety associations in total. A count measures associations between a state and a named variety, so one cultivar can be counted in several states and the total is not a count of unique cultivars nationwide. Markers use representative state-level coordinates, not orchard or cultivar-origin locations, and the scan is not an exhaustive official census. Nothing was cut for space.
