Transparency Market Research holds volumes of regularly updated data on the food and beverages industry. “Mushroom Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast 2016 – 2024” contains updated and relevant data on the current state of producers of mushrooms and the factors that help or hurt the market as a whole.
One of the causes for this is growth is that mushrooms are becoming more appealing to everyday consumers as more are learning of their health benefits. Mushrooms contain many crucial nutrients and some recent studies have even shown that they can also be used to combat diseases such as breast and prostate cancers. As a result of these health benefits, the global mushroom market is experiencing a direct increase in demand.
The global mushroom market is segmented on the basis of commonly produced types, into paddy, reishi or lingzhi, winter, oyster, shiitake, and button. Each type holds a greater prominence in different regions of the world, while a lot of them are prominently available in developed economies due to high demand.
The global mushroom market has been mostly dominated by Asia Pacific, particularly by the extremely high demand for mushrooms from Japan, China, and even India. On the other hand though, North America and Europe hold high value markets for the sales of exotic mushrooms in terms of imports as well as regional production. For instance, the rate of cultivation of shiitake mushrooms has shot up over the past few years in North America and Europe, given the increase in demand for them in these regions.
