Planting technique of black truffle

Black truffle is a very valuable ingredient, and caviar and foie gras are known as the top three delicacies in the world, so the price is very high, what are the black truffle planting techniques?

What are the planting techniques of black truffle?

Black truffles cannot be planted artificially. Because black truffles spread spores through animals that eat truffles, and then rely on symbiotic relationships among pine, hazel, orange, oak and other roots to get nutrients to survive. In general, if something goes wrong with the trees, the black truffle will not survive.

Second, where does the black truffle grow?

Black truffle is generally more in alkaline calcareous soil, and larger tree species such as oak, pine, Linden and beech are generally needed around it. Nowadays, mountain forests in many areas are polluted by human activities, or the soil becomes acidic due to rainfall and the species of trees change, resulting in less and less truffle production. So at present, truffles are only found in the primeval forests of Yunnan and Sichuan, and they cannot be cultivated artificially, so they are naturally expensive.

Generally speaking, the black truffle can not be planted artificially, it can only grow through the mycelium of fungi to absorb the nutrients of the surrounding plants, so it is valuable.
