Langeais, France – Sylvan is proud to announce the launch of its latest exotic mushroom strain, the SPX 281 oyster mushroom. Developed through our proprietary Oyster Breeding Program, this innovative, patented strain sets a new standard for sustainability and efficiency in mushroom cultivation.
A game-changer for growers and consumers
The SPX 281 sporeless oyster mushroom is a first-generation strain designed to offer unparalleled benefits to both producers and consumers. This brown, creamy, sporeless variety features a flatter, larger cap with significantly shorter stems, leading to:
- Reduced waste and higher yields
- Longer shelf life and enhanced flavour, improving the culinary experience
- Elimination of spores, safeguarding pickers from respiratory risks and preventing spore-related contamination
Sustainability and efficiency in cultivation
The SPX 281 crops mature quickly, allowing for an additional harvest per year while minimizing the risk of pest infestations. It thrives in warmer conditions, reducing the need for excessive cooling and promoting energy conservation. Additionally, its flat shape reduces packaging requirements, aligning with our commitment to sustainability.
At Sylvan, we provide solutions that enhance production efficiency while supporting environmental responsibility. The SPX 281 sporeless oyster mushroom is more than just an innovation – it’s a step towards a greener, more sustainable future.
