Swiss mushroom cultivation has seen a significant increase in the first half of 2021, with the harvest rising by 11% to 4,313,750 kilos, as per the Association of Swiss Mushroom Growers (VSP). The production of other mushroom types, such as oyster mushrooms, also increased by 18% to 233,463 kilos. This increase in production was not impacted by the partially closed catering industry, as consumers opted to prepare mushrooms at home.
