Solar Greenhouses at Pyongyang Mushroom Factory
Pyongyang, April 24 (KCNA) -- The Pyongyang Mushroom Factory has made achievements in cultivating mushrooms together with vegetables at its solar greenhouses.

The factory has produced a large quantity of vegetables and mushrooms like Agaricus bisporus at those greenhouses every year, which are in high demand for their peculiar taste and flavor.

The simultaneous cultivation of vegetables and mushrooms makes the former exhale carbon dioxide inhaled from the latter and vice versa.

And waste substrate can be used as fodder for livestock or organic fertilizer for vegetable patches.

The method is expected to have a wide range of application, as it is helpful to increase the yield of vegetables.
