Author(s): Dr. Shruti Agarawal and Mukesh Topwal
Abstract: The present study was carried out to investigate the yield performance of Oyster Mushroom (Pleurotus florida) on Wheat Straw in year 2017 at Narla in Uttarkashi district. Analysis of results revealed the completion of spawn running (in days), appearance of pinhead (in days), maturation of pinheads (in days), flush wise yield (g), total yield (g) and biological efficiency (in percent). The appearance of Spawn running takes 20 days whereas pinhead and their maturity took 25 days and 28 days, respectively on wheat straw. The yield obtained flush wise was 648g, 420g and 259g for first, second and third flush, respectively. Total yield obtained was 1327g and biological efficiency as 132.7 per cent.
