Inspired by his sibling who was reselling mushroom chips, Dangalan discovered the untapped potential of mushroom farming, a field that was still in its promising stages at the time. ManilaBulletin
Learning About Mushroom Farming
“Though I initially didn't like it, I eventually developed a fondness for mushroom farming. It was different from my previous job, which had nothing to do with farming,” Dangalan said.To further expand his understanding of mushroom production, Jefte sought guidance from nearby growers and actively participated in seminars and workshops.
Due to its growing popularity, oyster mushrooms can be readily sold in the market. Mushrooms were previously only harvested from the wild during the rainy season, but now they can be cultivated. Consequently, people have become more knowledgeable about oyster mushrooms, including their preparation and consumption. In the past, the sale of mushrooms was challenging as consumers were unfamiliar with the product and its proper utilization.
Dangalan's success in mushroom farming has not only provided him with financial stability but has also allowed him to contribute to his community's growth. He currently employs four regular workers and two contract workers, generating employment opportunities in his locality. Additionally, he offers tutorials and training programs on mushroom production and processing, partnering with the Agricultural Training Institute to help aspiring farmers.
