2015 Jun 01Activity report for April-May as part of a study of the consumption of forest mushrooms in order to promote the commercial sector
It has been found that the main gatherers of mushrooms are women and children under 15 years of age and that in general a picker could have 3 kg/day for all species combined. With regard to markets, it was noted that prices differ from one market to another and from one species to another and that at the central market of Rumonge the supply is less than the demand. In terms of households, it has been found that the vast majority of people living in these hills bordering the forest know and consume mushrooms.
Also, there are other types of mushrooms that grow at the beginning of the rainy season that we could not see during these two months (April and May).
