Wilde Mushrooms: the Neglected Plant in Ethiopia

Melese Damtew Asfaw*

Meeting the growing food needs of the world's population is a major challenge for our Ethiopian democracy in this time of crisis. In addition, widespread malnutrition and associated diseases are very common in economically poor people. This forces us to look for other cheap and high quality food options for most of our people. A non-green alternative called mushroom cultivation is one of the best ways to address this challenge because mushrooms grow on litter without needing extra soil without their unique nutritional and medicinal properties.
