CONSORTIUM OF MUSHROM PRODUCERS
France

P³ - PFÄLZER POWER PILZE
Sankt Alban | Germany
P3's vocation is to be a research center for mushroom substrate production, using mycelium and terra preta as interfaces to transform organic wastes into qualitatives ressources ready to soon (re)become soil. It is located in a hub of innovative, solidary, regenerative and sustainable habitats.
PYROLISIS
When organic material is cooked in a high-heat and low-oxygen environment, a process known as pyrolysis will occur in which the material's non-carbon atoms volatize as gases. If these elements are fully expelled, the carbon will be left behind in a highly stable (recalcitrant), crystalline form known as biochar. In recent years, biochar has received significant attention in soil studies as it has been found to produce a surprisingly wide variety of benefits to plant health. Many of these benefits seem to be attributable to the slight electrical charge and high surface area to volume ratio of the material, both of which cause biochar to adsorb and retain a large amount of water and nutrients. Further, biochar also seems to be a preferred habitat for microbes and fungal hyphae, which are commonly found to inhabit biochar's recesses. A number of methods have been designed for producing biochar. Most producers utilize specially designed stoves that can be made by modifying coffee cans, trashcans, SS-gallon steel drums, or even larger metal containers. Larger designs and further information on this burgeoning field of research can be found through the organizations Biochar International and SeaChar.
The alteration of the physio-chemical properties of soils by biochar have been shown to reduce soil methane emissions, nitrous oxide emissions, the need for input of fertilizer, and the leaching of nutrients, while simultaneously increasing plant growth, soil pH and CEC, soil aggregation due to the increased presence of AM fungi, levels of available Ca, Mg, P, and K, soil microbial respiration, soil microbial biomass, and nitrogen fixation in legumes.

EKOFUNGI
Beograd | Serbia
The "Waste to Taste" procedure of EKOFUNGI has been exponentially operating for the last 25 years. Part of the Blue Economy network and ZERI Foundation, the microbiologist founder Ivanka Milenkovic has trained diverse people and substrates to her special cultivation techniques. It is special because the core processes of substrate production rely on water cycles and aerobic fermentation processes, by-passing sterility. Her credo:
KNOWLEDGE IS POWER
