        abstract = {This study evaluates the economic effectiveness of mango cultivation compared to the cultivation of other major agro-based products across India. Using secondary data from government reports, agricultural surveys, and market bulletins, the research analyzes cost of cultivation, yield, market prices, net returns, and benefit-cost ratios for mango and selected crops such as banana, tomato, sugarcane, wheat, and soybean. Results indicate that while mango cultivation offers moderate profitability and long-term economic stability due to its perennial nature, certain annual crops like sugarcane and soybean demonstrate higher short-term returns and benefit-cost ratios. The study further explores the role of integrated farming systems in enhancing overall farm income, highlighting mango’s potential for diversification with allied agro-products. Regional disparities in productivity and profitability are discussed to provide insights for policymakers and farmers seeking optimized cropping patterns and sustainable income generation.},
