0. Executive Summary
Judgment axis | Key judgment |
| Item Identity | Shiitake mushrooms are not plants but edible fungi, and their representative scientific name is Lentinula edodes (Berk.) Pegler. They are registered under MycoBank No. 316467. ( MycoBank ) |
| Key role | It is a representative forest mushroom cultivated domestically using logs and sawdust substrates, and supplied as fresh shiitake, dried shiitake, sliced mushrooms, powder, and raw materials for processing. The Korea Forest Service includes shiitake mushrooms in its forest product production survey. ( NIFOS ) |
| production base | Log cultivation and sawdust substrate cultivation are managed as independent Production Types. Public technical data also distinguishes between the two methods separately. ( Rural Development Administration ) |
| Harvesting principle | Harvest based on the degree of cap unfolding, husk condition, size, shape, and intended use of the fruiting body, and record the variety, number of fruiting cycles, and harvest date in the Lot. Technical data on sawdust cultivation suggests that the optimal harvest time is when the husk on the underside of the cap has opened by approximately 60–70%. ( Jeju Agricultural Research & Extension Services ) |
| Product separation | They are classified into Fresh → Chilled → Dried, Whole/Sliced → Powder or processed/extracted raw materials. Fresh and dried shiitake mushrooms are also distinguished in national forest product statistics ( NIFOS ) . |
| Separation of cultivation methods | Log-grown shiitake mushrooms and sawdust-grown shiitake mushrooms differ in production cycle, substrate, facilities, automation, quality, and cost structure, so they are not merged into the same Production Entity. |
| Domestic official statistics | The Korea Forest Service’s Survey of Forest Products investigates production data for shiitake mushrooms as a nationally approved statistic. Although the 2024 survey includes fresh and dried shiitake mushrooms, detailed raw sample numbers were not directly compared in this v1.0 version; therefore, they will be entered later after verification of the official raw data. ( NIFOS ) |
| Industrial Transformation | Declining production from log cultivation, the competitiveness of domestic varieties, and the disposal of spent substrate are being discussed as official pending issues in the forest mushroom industry. ( NIFOS ) |
| Automation Opportunities | Sawdust substrate-based multi-tiered cultivation, rotary facilities, and smart remote control are being developed and disseminated as technologies for labor reduction and uniform production. ( Rural Development Administration ) |
| Supply and demand risk | The key factors are the mixing of spawn and varieties, substrate contamination, environmental variations, fruiting body quality variations, harvesting labor, fresh shiitake storability, drying yield, dependence on imported substrate, spent substrate, and price fluctuations. |
| Operating Principles | Strain–Spawn–Substrate/Log–Cultivation Batch–Flush–Fruit Body Lot–Fresh/Dried Product–COA–Buyer Connect the RFQ. |
| Final goal | We establish Mushroom Supply Intelligence capable of recurring procurement by connecting shiitake mushroom production methods with quality, processing, and Buyer Specs at the Lot level. |

Technical data from the Korea Forest Service classifies shiitake mushrooms into fresh and dried varieties based on moisture content , and distinguishes between open-field and greenhouse cultivation based on production site, and between log and sawdust cultivation based on growing materials. MarketHub quality standards also use this classification as the Parent Classification. ( Korea National Arboretum )

The National Institute of Forest Science officially discussed measures for the disposal of spent substrate as a key issue in the mushroom sector for 2024. Therefore, rather than treating spent substrate as mere waste, it is worthwhile to manage it separately through PRP, taking into account its raw material composition, contamination status, recycling uses, and legal standards.
