The study published in AFRICAN JOURNAL OF APPLIED RESEARCH assessed the engagement of people in the collection of the miombo woodland wild edible mushroom species for domestic and commercial uses as means of improving the livelihoods of the people in the Ruvuma and Tabora Regions.
Moreover the study found out that wild mushroom businesses can contribute significantly to food security and poverty alleviation in many parts of Tanzania where miombo woodlands are dominant. Mushroom farming can be an important activity for adding value to the miombo woodland forests hence improving its conservation at the same time providing additional income to the people.
