Agroberichtenbuitenland.nl reported that, last year, Serbia exported mushrooms worth around 25 million EUR, the Chamber of Commerce of Serbia (PKS) stated. The exports vary from year to year depending on the weather conditions, as the climate has a direct impact on the mushroom yield every year.
According to PKS data, dried mushrooms accounted for most of the income, as Serbia got €10 million for 282 tons. They are followed by frozen mushrooms, which were sold for €5.3 million, fresh porcinis earned the country €2.8 million, fresh girolles €1.8 million and canned mushrooms €1.6 million.
