Truffle plantation, 5.5 ha in Languedoc-Roussillon

This truffle plantation of 5.51 hectares (13.6 acres) is located at Aumes in the Hérault department. Established in 2012 with certified mycorrhizal plants, it began producing Périgord black truffles in 2019. Although maintenance has been suspended since 2020, over 85% of the plants retain their mycorrhization, providing a solid foundation for resuming production.

The parcel requires restoration works: site clearance, pruning of the truffle oaks and mulching would allow rapid resumption of activity. A well is present on site, and its potential rehabilitation would offer the opportunity to install a sprinkler irrigation system, particularly suited to the local Mediterranean climate to optimise fruiting.

This property represents an opportunity for truffle enthusiasts wishing to take over an established operation, combining production potential, the pleasure of truffle hunting and the enhancement of authentic natural heritage.
