Cao Lanh Mango Festival is also expected to create a close connection between farmers and businesses in the consumption chain. This is considered an important link in the process of restructuring the mango industry in Dong Thap in general and Cao Lanh City, especially in Cao Lanh District, thus bringing Cao Lanh mango products to new heights.
