This experiment were carried out to investigate the effect of the rice bran added into spawn various amounts on the cultivation. Our results show that 10 to 20 percent addition of the rice bran as a supplement results in a good mycelial growth and density. However we didn't find a significant variance among the different species of oyster mushroom using poplar sawdust as a medium. When it inoculated spawn with various amounts of rice bran on the medium of rice straw, the mycelial density was increased according to the increase of the added supplement, while there was no significant in the mycelial growth among the treatments. Through the field test it was showed that 15 to 20 percent addition of the supplement results in the highest yield, the shortest days from spawing to pinhead, and the lowest infection rate.
