Spent mushroom compost: management and options for use

There have been several projects focused on various aspects of spent mushroom compost (SMC) management, including the development of a ‘Best Management Practice’ manual for mushroom growers in order to promote effective disposal strategies and to impart ownership of SMC management on the relevant mushroom growers, farmers and authorities. These included a research fellowship (2007-WRM-FS-f ) awarded to Dr. Siobhán Jordan by the EPA, under the Science, Technology, Research & Innovation for the Environment (STRIVE) Programme 2007 – 2013.
