Truffle cultivation, or truffle farming, is the planting of mycorrhized seedlings in well-suited land, reproducing if possible the same natural conditions, in order to pick truffles in compliance with the regulations and with the help of dogs. The seedlings to be planted are appropriately mycorrhized in a sterile and aseptic environment, creating a symbiotic relationship between the mother plant and the fungus.
The result is equivalent to what occurs in the wild, as cultivated truffles have exactly the same level of quality. Indeed, thanks to the care of the land and irrigation of the plant-beds, cultivated truffles are generally rounder and larger, and therefore more appreciated in the market.
