Mushroom refers to a fleshy and nutrient-rich fruiting body of specific macro-fungi groups that can be hand-picked and grown either above or below the ground. Edible mushrooms are typically produced in a controlled environment with appropriate humidity, nutrients, soil pH levels, light, ventilation, air pressure, etc. Some of the commonly available varieties are shitake, button, oyster, paddy, milky, reishi, etc. Edible mushrooms are an abundant source of potassium, Vitamin D, riboflavin, selenium, etc., and are proven to be highly beneficial in managing weight, building immunity, and reducing the risks of various chronic diseases.

India Mushroom Market Trends:

The growing consumer health consciousness coupled with the escalating need for nutrient-rich and cholesterol-free food products is primarily driving the India mushroom market. Furthermore, the emerging trend of veganism and the widespread adoption of mushrooms as a substitute for meat on account of their rich umami taste are also propelling the market growth in the country. Besides this, the increasing utilization of mushrooms in dietary supplements as they contain a rich amount of fiber and digestive enzymes that promote gut and immunological health is catalyzing the product demand. Moreover, the elevating requirement for processed mushroom variants, especially across western countries, is generating numerous export opportunities for India, thereby creating a positive outlook for the regional market. Apart from this, continuous advancements in mushroom packaging technologies, such as the development of humidity-regulating packaging materials that prevent water condensation on mushrooms to extend their shelf-life, are also augmenting the market growth. Furthermore, the rising usage of mushrooms by the pharmaceutical industry for the treatment of several diseases, such as hypercholesterolemia and hypertension, is acting as another growth-inducing factor. In addition to this, significant investments in smart automation technologies for mushroom production to enhance the yield and decrease expenses are expected to fuel the India mushroom market over the forecast period.
