Mushroom Production and Organic Waste Waqas Ahmad, M. Aslam Perviz and C.M. Ayub

A global approach in agriculture has been a change away from simple systems that rely on conventional crops, to those that increasingly seek new varieties of plants that cater to advanced dietary needs. To this end, scientists and growers have recommended several new crops that can enhance the spectrum of agricultural produce. Mushrooms, known locally as “khumbi”, are among this emerging cropping system. Mushrooms are essentially fungi, a group of organisms distinct from plants, animals and bacteria. They convert inedible plant waste into palatable food, which is savoured due to its biting texture and flavour. They form a complete diet as mushrooms contain essential vitamins and minerals, and are the best substitute for protein.
