Study on some biological characteristics and yield capacity of milky mushroom (Calocybe indica) cultivated on different substrates at Quy Nhon University

The aim of this study was to determine the ability of growth, yield for Milky mushroom (Calocybe indica) cultivated under climatic conditions in Binh Dinh province. Milky mushroom were cultivated on four different substrates: sawdust + alluvial soil (treatment 1); sawdust + alluvial soil + rice husk ash (treatment 2); sawdust + loamy soil (treatment 3); sawdust + loamy soil + rice husk ash (treatment 4). The experiment was carried out in a 30 m2 in two seasons: rainy and sunny season. The highest economic yields were obtained 640.93 kg/1000 spawned bags with net profit of 17.927.200 VND for treatment 2 in rainy season and 590.4 kg/1000 spawned bags with 15.906.000VND profit in the duration of 3.5 months. Generally, research results showed that Milky mushroom is suitable with cultivated condition in Quy Nhơn of Binh Dinh province contributing to the enrichment of mushroom cultivated in province.
