The need to increase food production for the world's growing population is of great concern. The detrimental effects of the conventional way of cultivating crops using inorganic fertilizers are making the adoption of organic farming practices popular. One of the ways considered is the use of organic substrate or agro-waste like spent mushroom substrates (SMS). SMS is the organic remains after the harvest of mushrooms and it contains mineral nutrients and organic matter essential for plant growth and development. When improperly disposed of, SMS can be detrimental to the environment. This study aimed to determine the efficacy of the use of SMS in crop production over the use of chemical fertilizer, to use the organic substrate in an environmentally friendly way, and to compare the efficacy of combining SMS and NPK to the use of NPK or SMS alone to produce common beans (P. vulgaris). Ganoderma lucidum SMS was used in this study. The treatments used in this study include 5% SMS, 10% SMS, & 20% SMS, 5%SMS+NPK, 10%SMS+NPK, 20%SMS, 5%SD+NPK, 10%SD+NPK, and 20%SD+NPK, while 5%SD, 10%SD, 20%SD and Soil alone were the controls. 5%SMS+NPK (55.2cm) was found to have the most effect on the plant height and 20%SMS+NPK had the highest effects on the plant canopy (leaf length and width). On the other hand, it was found that 20%SMS+NPK had the most significant effect on the yield in terms of the number of pods. Nutrient applications combining organic substrates and NPK were found to be more effective overall for the growth and yield of the crop than NPK or the SMS alone.
