Industrial production of edible mushrooms is now regarded as an independent agricultural industry not dependent on the seasonality of work inherent in most agricultural operations. Since agricultural production is characterized by high consumption of resources, cultivation and harvesting of mushroom produce are carried out by means of specialized technical and technological equipment, allowing one to provide the necessary microclimate conditions. These issues can be solved by using intensive technological resource-saving processes, which provide a sufficient level of production profitability. In this regard, there is a need to develop an economic-mathematical model able to simulate the process of the enterprise as an example. The study aims to develop a simulation model of a mushroom farm to improve the effectiveness of management decisions. The study employs the AnyLogic simulation instrument to create a model and test its accuracy with the cultivation of Pleurotus ostreatus oyster mushrooms. The authors develop a model of a farm for growing cultivated mushrooms and describe the created model, the algorithm of its operation, and the created interface. This model gives an idea about the optimal conditions for the cultivation of mushrooms and can be used for decision-making in techno-management complexes.
