How are fungi important to the environment?
Fungi can be helpful or even harmful in some cases, but they all are important in the ecosystem. Fungi are considered to be one of the earth’s great recyclers, because they decompose (rot) dead plants, animals and other organic matters into soil. They are essential to the health of soil in crop fields, vegetable gardens and forests.
