Results & discussion:
There are total of 6-7 kilogram (kg) straw
mushroom produce in 20 plant beds. The first
week of harvesting recorded about 5 kg while in the week fourth, the production is extremely decline and not even reach 1 kg. The only reason for the declining of production is due to the depletion of nutrient in the EFB.
From the observation, the harvested amount of straw mushroom in the final week for harvesting is merely come from every plant bed is only one or two “egg” due to the depletion of nutrient in the EFB. The production is only one over twelve (1/12) from
the first harvesting product.
Conclusion
In the word of conclusion, planting mushroom in the forest
is a good idea for doing the research in order to find
and justify any factors that may be could be control
by human to get a favourable condition to maximize
the production. If this research is successful, it
may give a good approach for to be implement
in any natural forest or forest plantation in
Malaysia since we have started to aware on the
consequences of intensive agricultural activity.
Nowadays, we tend to practice land sharing in order
to gain profit, supply food, help the community and as well as taking care of the ecosystem. This study has summarized the importance of agroforestry for the benefit and wellbeing of the people and Mother Nature.
Thank you for giving us the opportunities to involve with this project. :)
