Button mushrooms (Agaricus bisporus) are picked by hand individually, which is time consuming and labor intensive. Robotic harvesting an alternative method to address this issue. Picking force motion critical for developing effective robotic mushroom picking end-effector. Mushrooms typically growing in a cluster. Conventional manual comprises combination of twisting, bending, lifting. To find s...

the present study examined the effect of packaging film on the quantitative and qualitative properties of button mushrooms. the three types of packaging tested were a clear polyvinyl chloride box, polyvinyl chloride stretch film and biaxially-oriented polypropylene film (bopp). the five types of moisture absorbers examined were silica gel (2.5 g, 1.25 g), sodium chloride (2.5 g, 1.25 g), and si...

abstract: using agricultural waste is one of the best ways to reduce the costs and the environmental pollution. button mushroom´s stipe is a cheap by-product that is rich in nutrients for human nutrition. the purpose of this study is to compare the nutritional value of cap and stipe of button mushroom (agaricus bisporus). the caps were separated from the stipes after harvesting and parameters s...

In the present diet conscious era, mushrooms are increasingly considered as a future vegetable, thus to sustain productivity and enhance yield, experiment was conducted at Mushroom Production Technology unit Bihar Agricultural University, Sabour, Bhagalpur during November 2019- February 2020.White button mushrooms, Agaricus bisporus (Lange) Sing. were cultivated using different techniques of sp...

the effect of pre-treatments in combination with hot air, vacuum and hot-a microwave drying methods the progress of the drying process, and textural, and colour and rehydration rate on button mushroom (agaricus bisporus) slices were investigated. in this work, one of the following methods: hot air, vacuum drying or microwave-assisted convective drying and also different pre-drying treatments, v...

ruffling is a practice through which the mycelia containing casing soil will be thoroughly mixed. to evaluate the effects of ruffling of different casing soils in button mushroom production, an experiment was conducted comprised of three levels of ruffling; no ruffling, deep ruffling vs. superficial scratch and eight different types of casing soils, namely: holland peat (c1), north peat (c2), s...

Abstract White-button ( Agaricus bisporus ) and shiitake Lentinula edodes mushrooms are widely consumed worldwide because of their organoleptic properties but also bioactive compounds such as β-glucans, ergosterol, phenolic compounds. Although these can be eaten raw food, they usually subjected to household cooking treatments, so effect on the stability molecules was evaluated in this work. The...
