One of the reasons that make truffles so expensive is that, they are nearly impossible to cultivate. Even in the native habitat, truffles are so sensitive with the rainfalls, sunshine, the pH values and the fertility of the soil, as well as the the trees around. A tiny change in the ecosystem could affect the amount of production.

Although some experts were able to grow, it was very tough to achieve. First, you need to invest a big fortune to create a new habitat, second, it takes few years to a decade for the mycorrhizae to develop. Even you have done everything correctly, there is no guarantee that truffles could grow. Unlike other plants, which you could observe the growing process. Truffles develop underneath the soil, giving you no clue about the status, completely in a mystery environment. As they are hidden in the soils, human can never sure about the harvest. Even you are sure truffles are grown somewhere underneath the soil, you cannot harvest easily as you can not be sure about the location.
