Abstract
The objective of this study was to determine the proper level of organic fertilizer integration with mineral compounds and vermicompost to improve the growth and yield of rice straw mushroom. A completely randomized block experiment was designed in outdoor condition with 8 treatments and 5 replications, each replication as a row length of 1.5m. The treatments included (1) supplement ofHVP 301.B 10g, (2) supplement ofHVP 301.B 20g, (3) supplement ofHVP 301.B: 30g, (4) supplement of vermicompost 10g, (5) supplement of vermicompost 30g, (6) supplement of vermicompost 50g, (7) supplement of vermicompost 70g, (8) no supplement of HVP 301.B and vermicompost. The results showed that rice straw mushroom cultivated in outdoor condition with supplement either organic fertilizer plus mineral compounds as HVP 301.B (10g) or vermicompost (70g) per 1.5m of bed length enhanced the length, width of the first 30 mushroom fruiting bodies (MFB), the number of MFB and mean weight per a MFB as compared to no supplement, therefore, the yields of mushroom on these treatments increased.
