* More information needed.

† More Information needed, especially on refuse.

9 Most of the samples were analyzed with seeds, some with skins. The pulp without seeds and skin contains much less fibre.

10 Group figures are unsatisfactory because the proportions of different kinds vary widely within areas and the fruits are dissimilar in many respects (for example, compare apples, avocados, and watermelons). Thus, group figures should be applied only to quantities of unspecified kinds, i.e., the residual supply, after making separate estimates for the principal kinds.

For definition of areas and relative weight of the particular fruits in terms of the retail weight, see Table 1.
