Summary. Researchers processed sugarcane bagasse with oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus florida) to create animal feed. Laboratory and animal feeding trials showed that mushroom-treated bagasse improved nutritional quality, increasing protein content and digestibility while reducing fiber compared to raw bagasse. The treated material performed as well as wheat and barley straw, making it a viable alternative roughage for feeding livestock.
