    Business Proposal for Mushroom Production

    I. General Information

    Project Title: Mushroom Farming


    Project Location: P-1 Bariw,Malinao,Albay
    Total Project Cost: 30,000.00
    Project Coordinator/owner: Eula C. Belason

    II. Rationale

    Mushrooms are called ‘white vegetables’ or ‘boneless vegetarian meat’


    containing 20-35% protein (dry weight) which is higher than those of
    vegetables and fruits and is of superior quality. It is considered ideal
    for patients of hypertension and diabetics. Oyster mushrooms
    (Pleurotus sp.) can be grown on variety of crop refuses, saw dust,
    bagasse (a waste product from sugar mill), sludge (a waste from
    paper pulp mill) etc. Processing of agro-waste in to valuable protein
    rich food reduces the environmental pollution and its byproduct
    as spent mushroom is also a good source for making compost,
    manure, soil conditioner and can be used as feed for animal and fish.
    Paddy straw and banana leaves are also available in the vicinity of the
    Campus which can be effectively utilized as substrate (growing
    medium) for mushroom cultivation.

    Oyster mushroom cultivation as cottage industry has potentials


    as a high-value crop in the province of Albay. For round the year
    cultivation the agri-climatic conditions are very conducive with modest
    temperature (25-30°C) and relative humidity (70-90 %).There is huge
    demand of canned, dried and fresh mushrooms and can get handsome
    price from sale of fresh and dried oyster mushroom. There is great
    demand of fresh mushroom in local market for consumption of tourist
    in hotels. Apart from fresh consumption of mushrooms it can be
    exported as organic brand in dried form.

    III. Objectives

    This project aims to:1. Produce 200 kilograms of mushroom2.


    Sustain production for three (3) years with 60% growth every year3.
    Serve as showroom for sustainable yet profitable agricultural
    enterprise4. Provide additional income for the university5. Conduct
    research and development endeavors pursuant to the improvement of
    the project.

    IV. Project Components and Activities

    A. Preparation of Pure and Sub starter Culture

    Preparation of Pure Culture will be done by inoculating sterilized


    culture media (potato dextrose agar) with sucrose as alternative to
    dextrose with tissue from healthy mushroom. Sub starter culture will
    be prepared by adding mycelium from pure culture to sterilized
    sorghum seeds.
    B. Construction of Cropping Shed

    A cropping shed with dimension of 6m x 2.5m x 2.5m made up


    of nipa pawid surrounded by plastic/Net cover and nipa or liplip walls
    for maintenance of humidity will be constructed. Nylon ropes for
    holding fruiting bags will be installed as well as steel drums outside the
    shed for sterilization of the fruiting bag.

    C. Preparation of Fruiting Substrate and Installation

    A mixture of rice bran, soaked and dried saw dust, lime and
    molasses in recommended proportion will be prepared and packed in
    polypropylene bags rimmed with PVC pipes. The bags will be subjected
    to sterilization. the bags will be further inoculated with sub
    starter culture of sorghum seed.

    D. Harvesting

    Harvesting will be done by rubbing off mature fully grown


    mushroom. Under developed and small primordial will be rubbed off
    the substrate.

    E. Maintenance

    Humidity and temperature shall be regularly monitored by


    spraying water on nipa walls and roof and inside the shed.

    V.BUDGETARY REQUIREMENTS
