Three cars carrying truffle mushrooms were confiscated

According to Fars news agency’s community group, three vehicles carrying truffle mushrooms, which were illegally harvested from the forests of Golestan province and were on the way to Tehran, were seized. This action of the security office was carried out by the order of the head of the organization and the reports received from the local people of Golestan province.

The vehicles carrying truffle mushrooms have been handed over to the judicial authorities after being seized to carry out legal procedures.

It should be noted that the harvesting of truffle mushrooms from the forests of Golestan severely damages the forests and causes forest pests and diseases. This type of mushroom grows only at the foot of forest trees such as velik, oak, and some one or more year-old plants of the plains and intermediate forests, and in some groves and pastures on the edge of the forest, which are damaged by digging and harvesting the roots of the trees and in It eventually causes the tree to dry up.

As the most delicious and expensive mushrooms in the world, truffle grows at a depth of approximately 5 to 30 cm in the soil and near the roots of plants, especially under the oak tree, and is sold in high quantities in European countries.
Lovers of natural resources and the environment can inform the 1504 and 139 system as soon as they see any destruction and encroachment on forest lands and natural resources.
