The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "Matsutake mushrooms from Japan are currently the most valuable type of mushrooms in the world. Although they are also found in the United States, the Korean Peninsula, and China, the matsutake mushrooms harvested in Japan, especially in the Kyoto region, have a very high price. These mushrooms are considered a rival to truffles and are regarded as one of the most precious ingredients in Japanese cuisine."

Matsutake mushrooms, also known as matsutake mushrooms, grow abundantly in the Korean Peninsula, China, and even the United States. However, only those harvested in Japan, especially around the Kyoto region, have very high value and price. Although the price of imported matsutake is around $50 (Rp.808,417) per pound or less, the price of Japanese matsutake can reach ten times that amount.

To help Japanese buyers distinguish between imported matsutake and domestically produced ones, Japan has implemented a law that requires imported mushrooms to be washed of dirt before being marketed. Meanwhile, domestic varieties tend to have a rough and dirty appearance. Japanese matsutake is valued for its strong aroma, thick meat-like texture, and delicious taste.

The price of Japanese matsutake mushrooms is influenced by several factors. First, the scarcity factor of matsutake mushrooms plays an important role. Over the past 70 years, the annual harvest of this variety has decreased by up to 95 percent, making it a rare and highly valued food. Additionally, mushrooms can only be harvested once a year, in September or October, and there is a threat from invasive worms that damage the mushroom habitat. All of these factors contribute to matsutake mushrooms being one of the most expensive in the market.

The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "Matsutake mushrooms grow on the trunks of red pine trees. Due to their brownish color, matsutake mushrooms are often difficult to distinguish from autumn leaves. Artificial cultivation of matsutake has not been successful so far because the mushroom has an important symbiotic relationship with red pine trees. Matsutake is also very susceptible to weather changes, too much heat or insect attacks can affect their harvest. Places that are too dry are also unsuitable for matsutake growth."
