Abstract:
The experiment consists of six different type of sawdust as- T
: Controlled

: Jackfruit sawdust with 30% wheat bran and 1% lime; T
: Teak
sawdust with 30% wheat bran and 1% lime and T
: Rain tree sawdust with 30%
wheat bran and 1% lime. 30% wheat bran was taken as basal substrate. The

and 1% lime performed better in respect of different growth, yield and nutrient
composition and mineral content of Pleurotus sajor-caju. Therefore, T
: Mango
sawdust supplemented with 30% wheat bran and 1% lime can be recommended
for farmer level Pleurotus sajor-caju mushroom cultivation.
