Title:
PROCESS FOR CONTINUOUS PRODUCTION OF MUSHROOM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/170911
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Disclosed is an organic method of cultivation of mushroom and more particularly the fruit bodies of G. lucidum (reishi) on various cellulosic substrates for continuous production throughout the year, by shortening the crop cycle. In this process, multiple context tissue is used for growing mycelia. The spawn is grown using maize grains supplemented with source of calcium, which increases its survival. The grown mycelium in the spawn is transferred to a multiple mushroom bed, to a cropping room and then to the harvesting room. The first harvest starts in 22-36 days with the total days of crop cycle being 52-54 days, with bio-efficiency up to 90%. In the post-harvesting stage the harvested materials are covered with sheets to get a quality product.
