Dec 1, 2018 · The lower C/N less than 20 in the mushroom residue composting, was very similar to that reported in the previsous study [11]. Lower TC content in the mushroom residue (300-400 g kg − 1 ) is than
Feb 27, 2024 · Mushroom substrate contains hay, straw, poultry or horse manure, crop residue such as corn cobs and cocoa shells. The exact composition of the growth substrate varies from grower to grower. The substrate is composted for about 30 days at a temperature of 160 degrees F to kill any weed seeds, pests, or disease pathogens.
Jun 23, 2022 · Mushroom compost is a by-product of the mushroom farming industry whereby the soil used in production gets recycled to make compost. This process doesn’t involve any additional materials, making it an eco-friendly compost to use in your garden. 6. Acts as a Slow-Release Fertilizer.
Aug 1, 2021 · Most composting raw materials used till date included animal manure [20], [34], [41], sludge [26], industrial or domestic waste [13], [23], with a small amount of straw or wood chips added to the compost. The succession of fungi community in Chinese herbal residue compost was also reported [30]. However, there are relatively few studies on the
Jul 7, 2023 · Therefore, this study aims to maximize and enhance the advantages of mushroom residues (MR) to make vermicompost that can resist Fusarium Oxysporium (FO) in maize. This study was conducted in three stages: compost preparation, composting, and planting. The mixing process of vermicompost with the soil was improved by the lowest CV.
Feb 24, 2022 · In this study, raw mushroom waste from the mushroom industry was used to generate compost pellets using an aerobic electric composter, where the processing time needed was investigated to greatly reduce the composting time.
May 20, 2024 · Spreading spent mushroom compost (SMC) to agricultural soils is a natural way to control plant diseases. Using organic waste material instead of chemicals, which is the most widely used method in agriculture today, is also a more environmentally responsible option.
May 1, 2020 · Spent mushroom substrate (SMS) is the residue after mushroom production. The aims of this work were to analyze the effects of continuous application of SMS for nearly 10 years on soil organic carbon (SOC), soil humus composition, microbial biomass and functional diversity in paddy fields and to provide a theoretical basis for scientific application of SMS.
Dec 1, 2016 · The results showed when the proportion of mushroom residue compost in the substrate accounted for 50% or less, there was no significant difference in the transplant height, diameter, and biomass
Temperature plays a crucial role in industrial composting, as it influences the activity of microorganisms and the rate of decomposition. Composting piles or vessels are monitored closely to ensure that temperatures remain within the optimal range for microbial activity (usually between 120°F to 160°F or 49°C to 71°C).
Abstract. Mushroom cultivation as a prominent biotechnological process for the valorization of agro-industrial residues generated as a result of agro-forestry and agro-industrial production. A huge amount of lignocellulosic agricultural crop residues and agro-industrial by-products are annually generated, rich in organiccompounds that are
Jan 4, 2023 · Purpose This study aimed to assess Epimedium herba residue (EHR) as a bulking agent for lignite and spent mushroom substrate (SMS) co-composting to develop a soil amendment/fertilizer as an alternative to current management practices (disposal in landfalls). Composting was performed in a 150-L composting box using different ratios of EHR (0, 10%, 20% and 30% of the sum of lignite and
Jan 1, 2022 · In the present chapter an effort has been made to explain the utility of the mushroom spent waste in the production of compost and vermicompost that increase the soil physicochemical properties as well as the plant productivity.
Feb 27, 2024 · The main purpose was (1) to investigate the quality of compost with different bulking agents (sawdust and mushroom residue); (2) explore the degradation of lignin and the sequestration of organic carbon in each composting layer with different bulking agents and the coupled relationship between lignin degradation and potential carbon emission
Apr 19, 2022 · Overall, the study approach suggested that a rapid composting mechanism is possible through vermi-technology-microorganisms and could be a viable option for transforming industrial raw mushroom waste into sustainable value products.
