Introduction: Pleurotus ostreatus (Oyster mushroom) is an eatable mushroom with an exceptional aroma and savour. It is suited to be cultivated in temperate as well as tropical climate. Aim: This research was aimed at comparing the effects of different substrates on the cultivation of P. ostreatus. Method and Materials: The substrates used in this study were cornhusk, sawdust with wood shavings, banana leaves and a combination of all the substrates. All substrates bags were inoculated with 52.5 mL teaspoon of spawn, autoclaved at 1210C and 1.1 kg/cm2 pressure and incubated under appropriate conditions both at the cropping room and fruiting chambers. The linear mycelia growth and biological efficiency were determined. Result: The time for spawn running varied between 20-60 days and time for harvesting took between 60-85 days. The maximum linear mycelia growth after spawn running, were observed on cornhusk and the longest mycelia growth time was observed on sawdust which took 60 days after spawn running. Maximum yield of P. ostreatus was obtained in cornhusk treatments with an average weight value of 92.1 g. The minimum yield observed on sawdust was 22 g and combination of all was 23 g while the banana leaves treatment gave no yield at all. The biological efficiency obtained on cornhusk was 12.43% and the lowest 2.2% was obtained on sawdust. Conclusion: Among all the substrates, cornhusk was established as the most effective substrate for the production of P. ostreatus as it best supported both the spawn running phase and the yield phase.

This study investigated a Pleurotus ostreatus production in Nsukka, Nigeria, using the locally available materials. A modified controlled environmental system capable of maintaining the micro elements (temperature and relative humidity) suitable for cultivation of oyster mushroom was developed. The system was tested using substrates of biomaterial origin (saw dust and rice bran) at different levels of treatments. The substrates used were fermented sawdust supplemented with rice bran at a spawning level of 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%. The steps involved in the cultivation were composting, bagging, spawning, incubation and cropping the substrates. The experiment was laid out in a completely randomized design in five replications and results analysed at P < 0.05 significant difference. The biological efficiency was determined to establish the minimum suitable nutrient supplementation levels and the best yield of Pleurotus ostreatus. The nutritional compositions of the yield were analysed. The highest mean yield of 24.5 g of fresh mushrooms was observed with the substrate mixture T3 (15% rice bran and 85% saw dust) and lowest yield of 8.6 g observed in the T0 (without rice bran). The effects of temperature and relative humidity on growth of oyster mushroom were evaluated. The result of this study showed that small-scale, indoor oyster mushroom production appears to be economically feasible in Nsukka.

This study aims to determine which accession of cashew has the best growth rate and germination in the nursery. Trial was conducted in the year 2019 using split-plot design. The first factor is the provenance of seeds, namely the Sudano-Sahelian zone and High Guinean savannah zone, and the second factor is type of organic matter entering the substratum composition cow dung (BV), goat droppings (BC) and poultry droppings (FP). The data were taken on the percentage of seed germination and growth parameters (height, number of leaves, collar diameter and leaf area). The analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to compare means between treatments and the means were separated by LSD test (Least Significant Difference). The results obtained indicate that the seed from sudano-sahelian zone has a good percentage of germination and best plant growth than those obtained from Guinean savannah highland Zone. The maximal percentage of germination after 28 days of sowing is 86.11%, 80% and 62.33% respectively in the BV, BC and FP substratum for the seed of sudano-sahelian zone against 84.44% (substratum FP), 82.22% (substratum BC) and 71.11% (substratum BV) for the seed of Guinean highland Savannah Zone. Regarding the growth of plant, for the two seed used, substrate with cow dung has high influence on the number of leaves, plant height and diameter of plant than the substrate that content the two other organic manures. In contrary, the surface area of leaf and the height to diameter ratio has been stimulated by the substratum containing goat droppings for the seed of sudano-sahelian zone. However, for the seed of Guinean highland Savannah, the high surface area was obtained in the substratum containing cow dung. The result showed that utilization of organic manures in the substrate composition may constitute a great potential for improving seed germination and plant growth of Anacardium occidentale. Seed from sudano-sahelian zone and substratum that consists cow dung and goat droppings may be suggested to farmers for better production of Anacardium occidentale saplings in a nursery.

In general, the basic material used in the planting media of white oyster mushroom is sawdust. The increasing need for sawdust, without being offset by sufficient availability will make sawdust difficult to obtain. The research aimed to obtain the composition substitution of the hyacinth powder and tempe dregs which provided the highest results for growth and yield of white oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus). The research was conducted in Gintung Kerta Village, Klari Subdistrict, Karawang District, West Java from July 2020 to October 2020. The method used was an experimental method with used Randomized Block Design (RDB) single factor, consisting of 9 treatments and 3 replications so there were 27 experimental units. The treatments were: A (without the addition of growing media treatment); B (5% water hyacinth powder); C (10% water hyacinth powder); D (15% water hyacinth powder; E (20% water hyacinth powder); F (Tempe dregs 5%); G (Tempe dregs 10%); H (Tempe dregs 15%); and I (Tempe dregs 20%). The results showed that there was a significant effect of composition proportion substitution of the hyacinth powder and tempe dregs on the length of mycelium per baglog, maximum fruit hood diameter per baglog, harvest intensity per baglog, fresh weight of mushrooms per baglog, and total yield in a planting period. The treatment of H (Tempe dregs 15%) gave the highest yield to the harvest intensity of 2.44 times, the mushroom fresh weight of 89.42 g/baglog, and the total yield in a planting period of 408.00 g.

The study was conducted in an average temperature of 27 0C. Objectives were to determine the yield performance of oyster mushroom using different substrates and substrates’ combination; to determine if there is a significant difference on the yield performance of oyster mushroom using different substrates and substrates’ combination; and to identify which of the different substrates and their combination performs best in oyster mushroom production. The experiment was laid out using Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with an area of 30m2 . Four treatments were used and replicated five times. Sawdust, corn cob and rice straw were the substrates used in this study. Treatments were: T1 (100% rice straw), T2 (100% corn cob), T3 (100% sawdust), and T4 (33.33% rice straw + 33.33% corn cob + 33.33% sawdust). Results of the study showed that there was a highly significant difference on the average number and total number of oyster mushroom during the first harvest. However, the average weight and total weight of oyster mushroom were not significantly different. The average number, average weight, total number, and total weight were not significantly different during the second to fifth harvest. Based on the results of the study, the adoption of T3 to obtain more number of oyster mushroom per fruiting bag per treatment is highly recommended to improve the production in the locality.
