“…In this context, we started a project to use SMS as roughage for cattle. It has been reported that the silage containing SMS can be used as a roughage for ruminants [3]- [5], although some adverse effects, such as reduced rumination and chewing activity, were observed [6], which may be because of the shorter fiber length of SMS used in this study: it is well known that there is a positive relationship between fiber length and ruminating time or total chewing time [7], [8]. If this assumption holds true, the above problem may be solved when materials having longer fiber length are used as base materials.…”

In the present study, with a final goal of using spent mushroom substrates as roughage for cattle, mushroom cultivation experiment has been conducted on Flammulina velutipes using fermented sweet corn stover (FS) cut at the length of 13mm and 30mm as a substrate material (FS13 and FS30, respectively), and productivity and eating quality of fruiting bodies were evaluated. A total of nine substrates were prepared: control (composed mainly of ground corncob and rice bran), four FS13 groups (24, 48, 73 and 100% of rate of replacement with corncob, on dry matter basis) and four FS30 groups (the same replacement rates as in FS13 groups). The cultivation period increased in FS13 groups comparing with FS30 groups (P<0.05) and did with increasing replacement rate (P<0.01). Fruiting body yield was not affected by the length of FS, but increased gradually with increasing replacement rate, although decreased values were found when the rate was reached to 100%. Eating quality of the fruiting bodies was affected neither by length of FS nor by replacement rate. In conclusion, corncob can be replaced up to 73% with FS without showing any negative effect on productivity of F. velutipes.  Index Terms-agricultural waste, corncob, Flammulina velutipes, mushroom, mushroom substrate, sweet corn stover

“…It was reported that SMS-MP can be used as ruminant feed without any deleterious effects on cattle eating behavior. Similarly, the current study found no effect of SMS-MP on feed intake and apparent digestibility of OM, EE, and CP in sika doe [ 20 ]. However, the SMS-MP reduced the digestibility of DM, which needs further study.…”

Sika deer velvet antler is the most important animal nutraceutic in traditional Chinese medicine. Reducing the breeding cost of sika deer by looking for a low-cost diet is the main research direction at present. The purpose of this experiment was to find an alternative diet for sika deer and reduce the cost of the diet by using spent mushroom substrate (SMS) as a concentrate supplement. The apparent digestibility for sika doe and the hematological changes of sika doe and suckling fawn were measured by replacing 10% of the concentrate supplement with SMS of Pleurotus ostreatus (SMS-MP). Compared with the control group, the digestibility of dry matter (DM), total protein (TP), globulin (GLO), and cholesterol (CHOL) of sika doe were significantly decreased (p < 0.05), and glucose (GLU), alanine (Ala), phenylalanine (Phe), and proline (Pro) of sika doe were significantly increased (p < 0.05) after the replacement of SMS-MP. Compared with the control group, the serum GLU of suckling fawn was significantly decreased (p < 0.05) and the phosphatase (ALP) was significantly increased after the replacement of SMS-MP (p < 0.05). There were no significant differences in the immune globulin and amino acid of suckling fawns between the two groups (p > 0.05). The present findings confirm the applicability of SMS-MP as a sika doe concentrate supplement. At the same time, using SMS, a waste resource, can not only reduce the breeding cost of sika doe, but also make full use of SMS to reduce environmental pollution.

“…Microbial fermentation inside the silo produces an array of end products and may exchange many nutritive factors of a forage (Kung Jr et al, 2018). Feed in the form of by-product feed-based-silage (BF-silage) given to steers produces fiber-rich feed for growth or fattening and increases the intake of DM and neutral detergent fiber (NDF) (Kim et al, 2015a(Kim et al, , 2013(Kim et al, , 2015b; by-product feed-based-silage (BF-silage) results in higher energy and protein utilization values, and lower fiber digestion in sheep (Seok et al, 2016) and reduce the use of feed supplements (Hendricks et al, 2021).…”

Increasing the availability of feed ingredients is important for the sustainability of livestock rearing. The use of agricultural waste as animal feed will not only improve food security but also contributes to the alleviation of environmental problems associated with waste management. This study aims to evaluate the growth performance of local sheep fed with agricultural waste in the form of silage and wafers. The study consisted of five treatments and four groups using 20 local male sheep. The results showed that feeding local sheep with agricultural waste in the form of silage and wafers had a significant (P < 0.05) effect on the dry matter, crude protein, and crude fat intake and was able to increase final body weights and feed efficiency compared to sheep fed with conventional feed. Processing of agricultural waste into silage and wafers can improve the performance of local sheep so that agricultural waste has great potential to be used as animal feed.
