Earlier Report Observations

From 2018 to 2021, the domestic market volume for mushrooms and truffles in Azerbaijan expanded from 1 323 t to 1 529 t. This growth occurred as export shipments fell sharply, dropping to 28 t in 2021, which increased the supply available for local consumption.

After reaching its peak in 2021, the market volume contracted to 1 314 t by 2023. This decline was driven by a rapid surge in export volumes, which grew more than eightfold over two years to 244 t in 2023, reducing domestic availability.

Throughout this period, export prices for Azerbaijani mushrooms and truffles rose steadily, from $1.59 per kg in 2018 to approximately $8.90 per kg in 2023, reinforcing the shift toward external markets.
