POLYSACCHARIDE MUSHROOM COMPOST SUPPLEMENTS

摘要

The present invention provides an improved nutrient supplement that increases the yield of mushrooms, especially Agaricus bisporus. The nutrient supplement consists of polysaccharides (especially cellulose) or polysaccharide-containing materials. The polysaccharides or polysaccharide-containing materials may be mixed with protein-containing and/or vegetable oil-containing materials and/or may be treated to increase the availability of the carbohydrate to the mushroom fungus.
