Abstract
Three species of Pleurotus, P. sajor-caju, P. platypus and P. citrinopileatus were cultivated on different agro-wastes: cotton stalk, coir fibre, sorghum stover and mixtures of these wastes. The primordial initiation day was observed between the 21st and 30th day after spawning. The yield was maximum on cotton stalks in P. sajor-caju and P. citrinopileatus. P. platypus yielded the maximum on sorghum stover. The biological efficiency, nutrient composition, energy value and energy recovery of the fruit bodies were estimated.
