Medium composition for Flammulina velutipes bottle cultivation utilizing cassava stem chips
Abstract
This study was conducted to establish replacement the corncob used in winter mushroom bottle cultivation. Corncob is unstable quality in moisture content or total nitrogen(T-N) content. Fruit body yields according to the ratio of cassava stem chips mixing were compared. After treatment-1 and treatment-2, fruit body yields increased by 8.8% and 5.4% and raw material cost decreased by 7% and 19%. The results showed that cassava stem chips could replace 33% to 67% of corncob for winter mushroom bottle cultivation.
