Katimon is an exotic Thai all-season mango widely cultivated in Bangladesh, bearing fruit 2 to 3 times a year with an average fruit weight of 300–350 g according to AIS/DAE sources. However, as it is not an officially released variety by BARI, standard recommended tree spacing and full-bearing yield figures are not published in official research bulletins.
