1
Every year, Gihei Fujara goes into the mountains hunting for this — a Masutake mushroom.
2
If the harvest is low, wholesale Masutake can cost over $500 per kilogram.
3
And over the past 70 years, Japan's harvest has declined by over 95 percent.
4
Now the mushroom's future is unclear.
5
So what makes these mushrooms so expensive?
6
And why have they almost disappeared?
7
Matsutake can't exist without trees.
8
They grow connected to the roots of red pine trees in a symbiotic relationship.
9
Matsutake grow in several countries, including China and South Korea.
10
But Japan's fetch the highest price.
11
In 2021, the season's first Matsutake were auctioned off for over $7 ,000.
12
They're harvested once a year, from around September to November.
13
But because the domestic harvest in Japan has plummeted, the price is volatile.
14
Unlike other prized foods, it's not a problem of over -harvesting.
15
It's a problem of changing habitat.
16
Matsutake can't be grown on farms.
17
They have to be foraged by hand.
18
But foraging is no easy task.
19
Gihie Fujara has been foraging Matsutake for over 60 years.
20
There's a lot of anticipation leading up to each harvest season.
21
Yeah.
22
Gihei forages from dawn till dusk, returning home around midday to empty out his baskets.
23
Even for someone with his experience, it can be hard to predict the quality of a harvest.
24
Even with a good harvest, these mushrooms are difficult to find.
25
They blend in with the forest floor and often don't grow at the base of a tree.
26
Knowing where to look is a result of decades of foraging on this mountain.
27
I feel like it's a good day to go to the beach.
28
It's a good day here.
29
It's a good day to go to the beach.
30
I'm going to go to the mountain and I'm going to do things like that.
31
I'm going to go to the beach
32
and I'm going to go to the beach and I'm going to go to the beach.
33
I'm still going to use it.
34
It's exhausting work.
35
But today Gihei is rewarded, filling several baskets each trip.
36
But his work isn't over when the harvest ends.
37
In the off -season, Gihei goes back to the mountain and tries to cultivate Matsutake. or do a trimakaki.
38
Gihei also tries to spread the spores of Matsutake to help them grow.
39
But cultivating Matsutake this way takes around five years, and success isn't guaranteed.
40
Even though this year was a big harvest, the long -term trend is in decline.
41
In 1953, Japan harvested around 6400 metric tons of Matsutake.
42
But in 2019, it harvested only 14 metric tons.
43
One of the biggest reasons for this decline is a change in how forests are maintained.
44
and the trees were all gathered and gathered up to the trees.
45
And then the Matsu -take grew up and grew up.
46
Matsutake also grows best with red pine trees that are a few decades old.
47
But over the past century, an invasive pest called Pinewood Nematode has been hurting the growth of red pine trees throughout Japan pan.
48
Without the trees, Masutake won't be able to survive.
49
The mushrooms also need ample rainfall and cool temperatures early in the season.
50
All of these factors create a delicate balance for Masutake.
51
Harvests vary widely each year, which causes big changes in price.
52
In 2018, prices were 20 to 50 percent lower than the year before because of a good harvest.
53
But in 2019, when there was a period of dry weather, prices almost doubled, reaching over $800 per kilogram in some parts of Japan.
54
Today, Japan imports over 90 % of its Masutaki from places like
55
China and South Korea.
56
In 2019, only around 14 of the 1 ,000 metric tons consumed were harvested domestically.
57
Imported Matsutake are more affordable compared to the ones grown in Japan.
58
But some people consider these mushrooms to be less fresh and not as flavorful.
59
Matsutake with a closed cap are often considered to be the most valuable.
60
But different sizes are used in different types of dishes.
61
A full course meal at this inn costs around $130.
62
This season is one of the most fun things we can do in this season.
63
I think it's a fun idea to make a fun idea.
64
For Japanese people, it's a贅 of Masutake in the summer, but everyone wants to eat it once again.
65
Due to the declining harvest, Masutake mushrooms were listed as vulnerable in 2020.
66
But the species isn't gone yet.
67
But if its growth and environment aren't sustained, this legendary mushroom likely won't get cheaper anytime soon.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
