Shafiul Islam, 30, said, "Mango is the main money maker crop of the region. Kansat is known as the largest mango market in Chapainawabganj district and Bangladesh. It is also the second largest wholesale mango market in Asia."
"Numerous varieties of mangoes including Gopalbhog, Himsagar, Langra,Fazli, Amrapali are available in this market. Mangoes are sold here
every day during the season which runs May to October. Mango farmers bring mangoes to the

They carry over 100 kilograms of mangoes in each bamboo basket and up to 50 kilograms in plastic baskets. These bird's eye view of this mango market looks like a mango kingdom to me."
