# A local tree in Tanzania’s mango economy

Dodo appears beside newer introduced varieties.

Dodo — Coastal Tanzania

A name on the map

A Sokoine University study distinguishes local Dodo from introduced mangoes in coastal Tanzania. Its farm survey found Dodo on only a small share of visited farms. That is a study result, not evidence that the name or fruit is disappearing nationally.
