To provide a basic information on the chemical concentrations of different raw materials used in mushroom cultivation, the raw materials were collected from 13 Flammulina velutipes, 14 Pleurotus eryngii, and 8 P. ostreatus farms and analyzed to calculate moisture contents, pH, total carbon(T-C), total nitrate(T-N), total phosphate(T-P) and 13 different cations. In our results, the C : N ratios of cotton seed meal, beet pulp, and corn-cob were 6~17, 12~29 and 56~127, respectively. Depending on the companies which process these materials, the range of C:N ratio of soybean curd residue was approximately either 8~9 or 14~17 with wider range of C : N ratio of the raw materials imported from other countries without the detection of heavy metals. In this study, the formula was provided to calculate the composition of mixed media for mushroom cultivation based on the ingredient chart of different raw materials.

볏짚은 우리나라 농촌 어느 곳에서나 구하기 쉽고 가격도 저렴하여 현재에도 느타리버섯 재배용 배지재료로 널리 사용된다. 볏짚을 배지재료로 이용하기 위해서는 볏짚을 논에서 수집해야 하고 볏단을 추려서 묶고 절단하는 작업에 대단히 노동력이 많이 소요된다. 또한 볏짚을 자작 논에서 직접 수집할 경우 재료 구입비용이 무료이므로 버섯재배 농가에게는 생산비를 절약할 수 있고 폐면의 해외수입에 따른 외화를 절감할 수 있다. (중략)

This study was done the calculation formula for calculating the below item. That is the moisture content of the substrates raw materials, water content of the mixed substrates; the amount of media, dry weight, amount of liquid, bulk density in the bottle; dried materials volume, water volume, mixing ratio in a substrates mixing materials; water requirement amount, replenishment amount for water content control of the substrates and the total amount of substrates. And each was prepared in an Excel file for automatically calculated. The calculation of the Excel file will be able to take advantage for the mushroom growers; to make raw material costs, per bottle nutrient content and moisture content maintained throughout the year and new media composition. At this time we expect, while minimizing the quantity or deterioration in the daily ups and downs continued growing courses throughout the year contribute to stabilizing production.

농업ㆍ원예분야에서 다공질 재료를 인공배지로 이용하기 위하여는 수분관리의 용이성, 우수한 양분의 유지, 통기성 및 보수성이 요구된다. 이들 성질을 만족시키는 재료로는 점토, 벤토나이트, 질석(vermicutite), 펄라이트(perlite) 및 락-울(rock-wool) 등이 이용된다. 인공배지 재료로 널리 사용되는 펄라이트와 락-울의 원료는 중국 및 호주 등지로부터 수입에 의존하고 있어 양액재배 농가에 커다란 부담이 되며 건습조절이 곤란하여 배지 내 수분함량의 조절이 용이하고 양액사용이 간편한 배지 및 폐기처리시 환경문제를 야기하지 않는 반영구적이며 자연친화형의 배지의 개발이 절실히 요구되고 있다.

In this study, we attempted to find substitute materials, swelling rice hull, cocopeat, corncob and coconut sawdust, for sawdust in bottle cultivation of Pleurotus ostreatus. Chemical characters of mixture substrates with four substitute materials for pine sawdust were not different significantly. By comparison in mycelial growth and yield of fruitbody, mixture substrate of cocopeat were showed the same level in P. ostreatus. Therefore, it is suggested that cocopeat was substituted for sawdust for cultivation of P. ostreatus.

This study was carried out to investigate the utilization of platanus for Pleurotus ostreatus culture medium. The results are as follows ; The growth of mycelial was the highest in the mixture medium of platanus sawdust 90% with rice bran 10% as of 12.8cm after 30days culture. The mycelia density of most of media were high exception of mixture medium, platanus tree sawdust 60% with rice bran 40%. The total nitrogen, phosphate, and potassium contents in all mushroom media were tended to decrease after oyster mushroom growth. In platanus sawdust 90% with rice bran 10%, total nitrogen, potassium, calcium and magnesium content of fruit body were higher than other treatments, but phosphate content was the highest in Douglas-fir sawdust 80% with rice bran 20% treatment as of 0.92%. The mycelial culture period was ranged 26~37 days according to different media, the mushroom yield of culture medium with platanus tree sawdust 80% with rice bran 20% was increased 18% compare to control Douglas-fir sawdust 80% with rice bran 20%.

The present study aimed at selecting a cost-effective substrate for king oyster mushroom based on the growth characteristics of fruiting body for use as a basic resource to ensure stable production on farms. Compositional analysis of substrates manufactured with different materials in each process revealed that the total carbon content was 42.24-48.22% higher and the total nitrogen content was 1.7-2.29% higher in the processed lot than in the control (i.e., substrate used by the farmhouse; 40.86% and 1.39%, respectively). Meanwhile, the carbon-to-nitrogen ratio was the highest in the control (27.9% vs. 19.12-27.88% in the processed lot). When cultured for 28 days, the mycelium growth was 11.5 and 11.3 mm in substrates 1 and 6, respectively, indicating the fastest growth; meanwhile, the values were 10.1-10.3 mm in the control and substrate 11, showing a similar tendency. Mycelial density did not differ significantly among the processed lots. Yield per bottle was higher in substrates 8 (205.95 g/bottle), 7 (178.51 g/bottle), and 11 (170.63 g/bottle) than in the control (152.2 g/bottle). Fruiting body quality was comparable to controls in all processed lots. Overall, economic effects, such as substrate material prices, should be analyzed, and stability evaluations, such as residual pesticide and harmful microorganisms, should be undertaken along with further detailed examination to ensure safe and stable production on farms.

This study was carried out to investigate appropriate processing conditions for expanded rice hulls to be used as a medium material in nutrient cultures. The water holding capacity of expanded rice hulls produced by using a domestic grinder with 8 mm gap and 3 mm cutter height was 271.0, and the bulk density and CEC were 0.19g·m-3 and 37.0 cmol·kg-1, respectively. These values are higher than those of perilte. However, geometric mean diameter (GMD) of expanded rice hulls was 1.01mm which was smaller than that of perlite, indicating unfavorable porosity. After supplying nutrient solution, the faster water percolation in expanded rice than perlite required more frequent water supply. There was no significant difference in tomato fruit yield between expanded rice hull and perlite. The pH increase and the lack of nitrogen in early stage of culture are to be solved in the future.

Amino acids of Pleurotus ostreatus in various cultural media(rice straw, sawdust and cotton waste) were analyzed to recognize the compositional differences depending on pileus size and portions(pileus and stipe) Total amino acids of rice straw were a little less than that of sawdust and cotton waste. Seventeen amino acids were identified and quantified. Among the amino acids glutamic acid was higest and cystine was lowest. The amino acid contents depending on the pileus size was higest in $3{\sim}7\;cm$ of rice straw, under 3 cm of sawdust, over 7 cm of cotton waste, respectively. The content of them was found to be higher in pileus than stipe.
