Overview
- Catalonia’s production stands near 90 kg per hectare versus a 30‑year average of about 60 kg, according to CTFC mycologist Juan Martínez de Aragón.
- A blistering start in September gave way to October dryness, warmth and wind that trimmed record‑year hopes, with the outcome now dependent on late‑autumn rains.
- Castilla y León operators nearly tripled mushroom‑picking permits after recent rainfall, issuing 3,940 through Micocyl and 3,642 through Montes de Soria.
- Program technicians forecast generalized fructifications within one to two weeks, reporting continuous cantharellus in humid areas and uncertainty over a boletus flush.
- In Galicia’s O Salnés, scarce rain, past fires and forest neglect have yielded scant, low‑quality finds, while A Cantarela proceeds with its November Outono Micolóxico events.
