The average benefit of planting Tricholoma matsutake with straw is nearly 10,000 yuan per mu.

"the quality of the red matsutake I grow with waste corn straw is not bad at all." A few days ago, in the greenhouse of the R & D and planting base of Red Tricholoma matsutake in the Ecological Professional Cooperative of Yuantong in Sheqi County, Henan Province, Chairman Wang Zhenquan was organizing workers to pick and pack brightly colored red Tricholoma matsutake.

How to turn straw waste into treasure has been a topic of concern in recent years. After the research and practice in recent years, the cultivation and cultivation of Tricholoma matsutake with corn straw has achieved phased success, which has not only found a new way out for waste straw, but also found a new channel for farmers to increase income.

Wang Zhenquan said that Tricholoma matsutake originally grew in the roots of red pine trees. After a large number of research and experiments, the cooperative developed a new planting method, using corn straw plus soil cultivation. The introduction experiment shows that the red Tricholoma matsutake produced with corn straw as the main planting material and appropriate auxiliary materials has large bacteria, bright color, delicate meat, delicate fragrance and delicious, and its quality is not inferior to that of the wild. And this planting model can not only recycle a large amount of straw, protect the ecological environment, but also effectively improve the income of farmers.

"in the social flag, our cooperative is still the first to successfully cultivate Tricholoma matsutake." Wang Zhenquan said that planting Tricholoma matsutake with corn straw has the advantages of low cost and simple process, and requires nothing more than bacterial bags, straw, rotten soil, farm manure, and so on. As long as you keep an eye on water and temperature, you can harvest five or six crops in three months. Moreover, because of its high nutritional value and good taste, sales are not a problem at all, and demand falls short of supply in the local market.

"We have an existing R & D and planting base of more than 50 mu, with a yield of 3000 to 5000 jin per mu and an annual economic benefit of 8000 to 10,000 yuan per mu. In the next step, the cooperative plans to promote the planting of red matsutake 500mu, with 5 million jin of digestible corn straw a year, so that more farmers can also benefit from it. "
