White Button Mushroom Cultivation (Agaricus bisporus) - DMR Solan

The complete step by step process on how to cultivate White Button Mushroom (Agaricus bisporus) by Directorate of Mushroom Research (ICAR), Solan.
Button mushroom cultivation has two major components, composting (preparation of substrate/compost), and the crop management, (raising of mushroom crop). The substrate preparation has undergone scores of innovations/improvements suiting environment protection laws in many developed countries. At the same time, casing medium has also been standardized with use of peat and its alternative materials (FYM, Spent Mushroom Compost and Coir Pith) with prime objective to improve productivity and quality of mushrooms. Similarly, the crop management techniques have also been improved upon to harvest highest possible mushroom yield over a shortest period of time. All the operations/applications done after completion of composting are handled under the head crop management.
