In this paper we have carried out a study of the mango technology (Manguifera indica L.), analyzing much national and international information. We studied the mango variety ¨Haden¨ that is cultivated in the Experimental Station Álvaro Barba", belonging to the UCLV, Santa Clara, Villa Clara. We would like to highlight that we made a detailed study in many countries like: Costa Rica; Japan; El Salvador; Chile; New Zealand; Colombia; Ecuador; Venezuela; Mexico; Brazil and Florida (United States); which are high producers and exporters of this fruit. In the case of Cuba, we realized an analysis of the current harvest situation on this thematic. On the other hand, in this paper we analyze of the technologies used in these countries, including the Cuban case. Finally we recommended the mango after-harvest technology for the Cuban conditions, which can improve this activity in our country. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
