Mushroom growing

MUSHROOM GROWING

Mostly affected by growing costs

Production output still lower by 8% compared to last year (+4% vs Q4 2021) due to:
- Previously sustained production challenges;
- COVID-19.

Increasing costs put pressure on profitability: energy and payroll costs account for 35% of total COGS.

Review of product prices is always challenging and takes time: ~5% increase in prices during last quarter, but average sale price is the same YoY due to different product mix.
