I think the russian spammer makes a good point. But why don't the farmers, who are capable of knowing their self-interest, use the crates if it will double what they sell? Is the crate worth more in other uses than doubling their mango sale?
Mungo, you commented: "I just listened to this episode and I couldn't figure out why Mr. Mango just didn't say to his farmers, "Here is a crate. I will not buy mangoes from you that are not in crates. Period.""
But I think that Mr Mango ISN'T buying the messed up mangoes. I don't see why he would. The comments on the NPR page are outrageously off topic, hence the belated post here.
