چکیده

Cropping trials were carried out with mushroom compost supplemented at casing and at spawning. Protein-rich organic substrates, some of which were formaldehydeand/or heat-treated, were used as supplements. Mushroom production could be increased significantly, both by supplementation at spawning and supplementation at casing. Results were compared to production figures obtained by using the commercially available delayedrelease nutrient, Spawn Mate. S. Afr. J. Bot. 1986, 52: 141 -144

Stimulation of yield in the cultivated mushroom by vegetable oils.

Supplementation of mushroom compost at spawning and at casing with various refined and crude seed oils resulted in 1 to 1.5 lb/ft increases in mushroom yield. Supplementation at casing with ground seeds or protein-oil combinations caused 2 to 2.5 lb/ft increases in mushroom yield. Further evidence is presented for a relationship between lipid metabolism and the initiation of fruiting in the cul...

Mushroom Production: Cost Effective Use of Soyabean Meal (De- Oiled Cake) During Composting

Considering the constraints due to unavailability of uniform quality chicken manure in local market, three different combinations of wheat and soyabean meal (de-oiled cake) were tested for their ability to affect yield and cost of production of Button Mushroom (Agaricus bisporus). Compost was prepared by mixing 18, 22 and 25% soyabean meal with wheat straw by short method of composting. 80% chi...

Garbage Composting for Mushroom Production.

Laboratory and pilot-plant composting of garbage mixtures of newspaper and vegetable waste has demonstrated that garbage can be converted to a medium that produces mushrooms (Agaricus campestris) in good yield. Sewage sludge was less satisfactory than newspaper, gumwood sawdust, or vegetable waste as a compost material for growing mushrooms. A sample of commercially produced compost was found t...

Effect of Different Levels of Mushroom Waste (Agaricus bisporus) with or without Probiotic on Growth Performance, Carcass Characteristics, and Breast Meat Quality in Broiler Chickens

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of mushroom waste and probiotic levels on growth performance, carcass characteristics, and meat quality in broiler chickens. A 2 × 3 factorial arrangement with two levels of probiotic supplementation (0 and recommended rate) and three levels of mushroom waste inclusion (0%, 3%, and 6%) was used in a completely randomized design using male broi...

DEVELOPMENT OF A NEW COTTON WASTE COMPOSTING TECHNOLOGY FOR CULTIVATION OF OYSTER MUSHROOM (Pleurotus ostreatus)

This applicable research has successful selected enzyme Ctec2 from Novozyme (Denmark) which gave the best cellulose degradation activity compared to the other enzymes. At optimum conditions of 50 o C, pH=5 and ratio between enzyme and substrate (E/S) being 0.40%, 0.45%, 0.50%, the time needed to substrate degrade was 60 hours. Based on this finding, a new cotton waste composting technology for ...
