The First Edition of MushroomLink Magazine
The new-look quarterly magazine is an important part of the Australian mushroom industry communications program, supported by the Hort Innovation Mushroom Fund and the Australian Government.
In each issue we will explore the latest in research developments, look at what’s happening beyond our shores, and bring you updates on services and issues that are important to our Australian growers.
Our first issue takes readers from the growing rooms of Norfolk Island to research developments on the Emerald Isle. In this issue’s Far Flung Fungi column, we visit China and showcase the extraordinary numbers of the mushroom industry in the world’s most populous country.
We also present the final report of the pest and disease project, with some of the most important tips and tricks for growers summarised in one spot. And although we all know that mushrooms are good for our nutrition, have you ever wondered how they nourish themselves? A University of Sydney honours student has explored the fascinating interactions of bacteria and fungi that work to nourish a growing mushroom.
We look forward to working with all members of the mushroom supply chain, delivering information the industry wants, the way industry wants it
