Organic cultivation in the truffle world is an innovation, because if it is true that fresh truffle is organic itself, on the other hand, you also have to consider the origin of the product. Truffle is a hypogeous (underground) fungus, so it is able to absorb several kinds of substances from the soil (like a sponge), so we can pose the question about the origin of the truffle and the risk of possible contamination. In the past in the nature there have been cases of truffles which were found in contaminated areas (in Italy and abroad). For this reason it is important to trace the production chain.
