As an emerging market in developing countries, mushrooms are promising in terms of agricultural trends, but have limitations due to their limited shelf life. To overcome these limitations, value-added fungi make products more durable must be converted to a product. The value added of mushrooms in India is about 7% (lower than in some developing countries) and the use of mushroom products in baked goods (cookies, breads, cakes) and fast food products such as burgers, chops and pizza. Marketing of products is uncoordinated as they are sold without standard packaging or dimensions. In order to protect smallholder farmers from exploitation by middlemen, central sourcing and processing units around potential/growth areas and need to set up an efficient marketing system with moving a farmer from production level to enterprise level requires proper integration of all parties in the value the chain through social media. More research, financial support, appropriate mushroom policies and laws, and efficient value chain governance systems are needed now. There is a need to increase mushroom production and consumption as mushrooms are nutritious, medicinal and functional food.
