First, look at the market to choose varieties.
The prices of edible fungi are different in different regions, seasons and years. Mushroom farmers should not stick to the old rules in seed selection, but should improvise and start from the following aspects.
1, choose varieties with good prices,
Such as "2796" in mushrooms, "New Century" in Pleurotus ostreatus P54, "Small Pleurotus ostreatus", Volvariella volvacea V23, V35 and other varieties, which are usually in short supply and have good prices, can win by price, and are especially suitable for suburban development.
2. Select high-yield and high-quality varieties,
Win by quality and output. These varieties can still obtain high economic benefits during the peak period of listing, which is more suitable for the development of large-scale edible fungi bases exported abroad.
3. Select new and superior varieties. "Rare things are precious", and some rare and new superior varieties such as Pleurotus eryngii, Agrocybe aegerita, Pleurotus nebrodensis, hypsizygus marmoreus and Xiangwei mushroom can be produced on a large scale, with high price and good economic benefits. However, its characteristics and supporting cultivation techniques must be mastered when selecting.
Second, choose varieties to "look at three".
At present, there are still many fake and inferior strains in the market, which makes consumers difficult to distinguish between true and false and easy to be deceived. Therefore, the selection of excellent strains should be done well: 1, depending on the unit.
It is necessary to choose units with high credibility, strong economic strength and strong technical force to purchase seeds. You can't simply pursue cheap prices, otherwise you will be easily fooled and cause unnecessary economic losses because of small losses.
2. Look at the brand.
To choose a brand that you are familiar with, you should not blindly believe in advertisements, such as the conversion rate of 450% and 500%, the resistance to all kinds of bacteria, the success rate of 100%, etc., which are all deliberate speculations and cannot be believed.
3. Look at the strains.
Strains have certain appearance characteristics, and many strains can judge their quality and freshness from their appearance. Seed buyers should learn to observe the characteristics of strains and be good at distinguishing between good and bad strains and old ones.
Third, willing to spend money to buy improved varieties.
Edible fungi is a kind of planting industry with great economic benefits. For example, the output value of 5 tons of cultivated materials can be as high as 10,000 yuan, and the low is only a few hundred thousand yuan, and some even lose money. If you are willing to invest and buy fine strains, you can actually ensure high yield and high quality and reduce investment risks to a certain extent, which is a big profit with small money.
