Description
In India, the favorable weather conditions and dense forests provide an ideal environment for the natural growth of mushrooms. These edible fungi thrive in fields and ridges, making them a common part of rural diets. Over time, mushrooms have become increasingly important in commercial farming, with various types being cultivated in laboratories. This book explores the different mushroom varieties cultivated in India, their traditional uses, and the rise of mushroom farming as a commercial enterprise. It also delves into the growing market for mushrooms, including their import and export, and their economic and nutritional benefits.
