The mushroom business in the Philippines is apparently a burgeoning business with enormous commercial potential in as much as it targets a basic need: food. There is also a claim, on the contrary, that its present cultivation in this country is limited, perhaps due to the limited local knowledge about its culture.

Mushroom is a delicacy and is really accepted as vegetable. Its present cultivation in this country is limited, perhaps due to insufficiency of planting materials and the limited local knowledge about its culture.

Mushroom growing requires little space and time and farmers can make use of their rice straws following harvesting. Mushroom can be grown the whole year round provided a good storage of rice straw is prepared.

    Salamat sa pagkakaroon nyo ng magandang puso, ako po ay naghihintay na mapadalhan ng inyong mga files tungkol sa pagaalaga ng mushroom. Ako po ay handang maghintay at ipapadala ko po ulit ang aking email address. Salamat po. megabayts@yahoo.com

    To TMPC,

    Salamat po sa offer ninyong mga PDF files. Paki sama nyo po ako sa padadalhan ninyo. Gusto ko pong makapagsimula ng mushroom culture dito sa amin sa Candaba. Wala pa pong viable na mushroom production dito bagaman maganda ang environment para sa kabute dito.

    Umaasa po at salamat na muli.
