In India, mushroom farming has gained popularity because of higher profits. In particular, the Gucchi mushroom is the most popular variety for its unique look, market demand, and unique taste.
Generally, mushrooms like to grow in cool and humid environments. Particular conditions for mushrooms to thrive range between 15-25°C, and Humidity levels range between 80-90%.
Farmers can market and sell Gucchi mushrooms successfully by selling them locally to save transportation costs. Additionally, they can use online platforms to reach a vast audience.
Gucchi mushroom farming is very profitable because they are rare and expensive. It is also eco-friendly, using little water and land. It's a great option for sustainable and profitable farming.
They are expensive because of their special growing situations and rarity. Currently, in India, a 500-gram good-quality Himalayan mushroom costs around 18,000.
