tiger milk mushroom cultivation in Hainan
The primary production area of the Hainan Tiger Milk Mushroom is deep within the tropical rainforests of Hainan. Due to the minimal wild resources, it is unable to meet market demand. Lishu Biotechnology has successfully achieved the continuation and propagation of this precious edible and medicinal mushroom through the collection, identification, domestication, evaluation, germplasm creation, and simulated wild cultivation of wild germplasm resources. Tiger milk mushroom is rich in polysaccharides, triterpenoid compounds, proteins, and other components, and has the effects of moistening the lungs, stopping coughs, and enhancing immunity, with significant benefits for respiratory health.
From the rainforests of Hainan to the international stage, Lishu Biotechnology has demonstrated the company’s immense potential in the health industry through the Tiger Milk Mushroom. In the future, Lishu Biotechnology will continue to focus on the edible and medicinal mushroom sector, bringing the healing power of Eastern nature to more international consumers and showcasing the treasures of China’s Hainan tropical rainforest to the world.
