버섯(mushroom)의 가축사료화 가능성을 조사하여 친환경농업 소재개발의 기초자료로 활용하고자 시험한 결과, 팽이버섯 탈병배지를 육게사료에 5~10% 첨가시 사료절감 10~20%, 복강지방 감소 25~37% 및 육질개선 효과가 있었다. 또한 팽이버섯 탈병배지를 육계사료에 5~10% 첨가하여 사육한 닭고기는 아미노산 함량이 33~38% 증가하였으나, 20% 이상 첨가시는 오히려 감소하는 경향이었다.
To develop environmentally friendly bio-materials for animal feed, the potential of using mushroom was studied. Adding Flammulina velutipes cultivation media wastes (FCMW) has shown beneficial effects on broiler meat quality and production cost because of the $10{sim}20%$ saving in feeds for broiler chicken. However, differences proximate composition between FCMW and commercial broiler chicken feed were observed. FCMW had higher contents of crude fat (6.2%) and crude fiber (13.7%) than the commercial broiler feed which had crude fat and crude fiber of 4.0%, and 6.0%, respectively. But FCMW crude protein contents were lower (12.2%) than those in commercial broiler (19.0%). Adding $5{sim}10%$ of FCMW to broiler chicken feed increased amino acid concentration upto $33{sim}38%$ in the meat, but adding more than 20% decreased amino acid concentration.h
