Companies from Linhares, in Espírito Santo, are discarding tons of papaya that were due to be exported. This is due to the new coronavirus pandemic, export demand to decline, and the fruit to have spoiled in factories. Entrepreneurs reported that part of the fruit that is good for consumption, has been donated to institutions, such as the city’s elderly home.
The president of the Brazilian Association of Papaya Producers and Exporters (Brapex), Bruno Pessoti, explained that the sector was taken by surprise and, in addition to the drop in consumption, there are also difficulties with air transport of the fruit to other countries.
