MUSHROOMS
Mushrooms are fast growing and highly sensitive, thus they require close monitoring and precise picking.
Performing tasks at a specified time have a dramatic effect on the quality and the growth potential of a crop. Mushrooms are grown in special rooms with controlled temperature, ventilation and humidity.
The global increase in awareness of a healthy food has become an engine for growth in the mushroom market, which are considered a high quality meat substitute. Today, growing and picking mushrooms as a fresh product is done completely by manual labor. The sensitive nature and the current growing method are a major barrier that affects the quality of the mushroom, the yield per unit of land and the expenditure on labor
Precision in picking
A mushroom ripens within a few hours, picking it too early or too late may damage its quality. Working hours and the human factor limit the quality of the harvest or increase the labor expenses.
Crop efficiency
Imprecise timing in harvesting does not allow for a full utilization of the growth cycle potential.
Reduction of waste
Various studies following the waste of agricultural produce found that there is up to 19% of waste during harvesting of mushrooms.
Labor
In industrialized countries, the cost of employing professional mushrooms workers is about 40% of the farmer expenses.
Sanitation
Mushrooms are very sensitive to human contact. Any human entry into the growing area reduces the quality of the mushroom and consensually its price to the consumer.
The number of mushroom farms worldwide are constantly growing and are valued at more than 7 million square meters of growing beds.The market is growing at a rate of 9.5% and is expected to reach 60.1 $ billion by 2021.
