Price of morel mushroom (Morchella conica) touched NRs 7,000/Kg in August 2005 and remained at the same level in September 2005 in Nepalgunj on the backdrop of strong demand in India (Delhi) and other overseas markets. This is the highest market price recorded for morel mushroom in the Nepalgunj market. During these two months, morel price in Dolpa, one of the major morel producing districts, also remained buoyant with price ranging from NRs 5,500/Kg to NRs 6,000/Kg .
