To calculate the Mushroom Yield (\(MY\)):
\[ MY = \frac{WM}{WDS} \times 100 \]
Where:
Mushroom yield is a measure of the efficiency of mushroom production, calculated by dividing the total weight of the mushrooms by the total weight of the harvested dry substrate, then multiplying by 100 to get a percentage. This metric helps in understanding the productivity of the substrate used for mushroom cultivation.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ MY = \frac{500}{1000} \times 100 = 50\% \]
The Mushroom Yield is 50%.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ MY = \frac{750}{1500} \times 100 = 50\% \]
The Mushroom Yield is 50%.
