At the end of September, the number will be less and the price will rise
At 12:00 p.m., at the Mushuihua Market in Guandu District, fewer people came to buy wild mushrooms than in July and August. Although the vendors selling wild mushrooms are placed from the door to the innermost part of the market, the number of wild mushrooms in each stall has been significantly reduced, among them, there are chicken fir, dried bacillus, bluehead mushrooms, millet ripe mushrooms, chanterine mushrooms...
At the Mushui Splash Market, Ms. Li specializes in hand green. "These sights are Yiliang, and the recent wild bacteria have been falling, the number is getting smaller and smaller, and the price has risen compared with the peak season." In the peak season, hundreds of kilograms are sold every day, and recently only more than 10 kilograms can be sold every day, sometimes even only three or four kilograms. Ms. Li said that at present, the price of seeing hand green is 300-350 yuan / kg, in the peak season, the quality of good as long as 110-130 yuan / kg, the end of September is estimated to be less, the price will rise.
"Recently, the price of dried bacillus has increased by 100-200 yuan compared with the peak season." At Mr. Wang's stall, dried bacillus packed in small dustpans is neatly arranged, and there are three prices according to quality. Mr. Wang said that as the rain has decreased, so are wild mushrooms, and the number of dried bacillus is now halved compared to the peak season. "When dried bacillus was just listed, it sold for about 3,000 yuan / kg, the quality of which was better in the peak season was 1200-1300 yuan / kg, and now the quality is about 1500 yuan / kg."
Ms. Liu's stall is filled with mushrooms such as bluehead mushrooms, matsutake mushrooms, and chanterelles. She said that the price of fungi is now more expensive than in the peak season. "Chanterelles sold for 40 yuan / kg more than a month ago, now they sell 80 yuan / kg, and good quality is 150 yuan / kg." Now there are not many customers, and the business is not good. Although some merchants are eager to sell the remaining wild mushrooms and reduce the price, the price is still high compared to the peak season. ”

Both artificial and wild morel mushrooms will be on the market
Cheng Aili, head of the wood water splash market, said that at present, there are about 300 tons of wild mushrooms for sale in the market every day, although the number of blueheads in the province is reduced, but the blueheads outside the province are on the market, and compared with the same period last year, the number of wild mushrooms has decreased. "The number of wild mushrooms in the market at this time last year was 350-400 tons, and at the beginning of this year, the province was relatively dry, coupled with the impact of the epidemic, wild mushrooms from neighboring countries such as Myanmar, Laos, and Vietnam did not enter the market, so the number of wild mushrooms decreased compared with previous years."
It is reported that since the listing of wild mushrooms this year, 10 new wild mushrooms have been found in the wood splash market, 8 of which are edible, 2 of which are not edible enough for medicinal purposes, and a total of 6 cases of wild mushrooms that are not suitable for consumption have been destroyed. Cheng Aili said that the number of wild mushrooms will gradually decrease in the near future, artificial morels and wild morels will be listed in October, and black truffles will be listed in large quantities after winter.
