Prof. Dr. Mohd Azlan Mohd Ishak Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nasrul Bin Hamidin Faculty of Engineering Technology Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP) 1
OBJECTIVES To use and monitor the indoor cultivation system with web-based monitoring system for various capacity of substrate bags loading of 3000, 5000 and 7000 for mushroom production. To monitor parameters capacity such as humidity, temperature and ventilation at various substrate bags loading on optimized condition sustainability. To empower human capital such as undergraduates, postgraduates, graduate intern and industrial attachment of staff in production, commercialization and entrepreneurship management. 2

DISADVANTAGES OF OTHER SYSTEMS - Conventional - Cannot mushroom control the house. humidity - Roof with - - Just apply surrounding water to netting reduce temperature - Mostly used by cultivators - Fully covered - Humidity is not block bulding monitored and - Just apply water control on the floor - Waste water just - No humidity and to endure the temperature floor is monitoring and continuously controlling wet 10
Description of Similar Product Available in the Market and Existing Market Size In Malaysia:- number of mushroom cultivators increased from 339 in 2007 to 428 in 2014 (Rosmiza et. al, 2016). about 80% of them are small cultivators (below 50 kg /day). about 17% are medium scale ( 50-500 kg per day), about 3% are big scale industries (> 500 kg/day) (Haimid et al., 2013). The number of cultivators are fluctuating due to unstable production and market changes improper documentation from the authority unable to produce as demand or desired scale. Whereas, the daily demand for fresh mushrooms was 47% higher than the supply in 2007 (Ismail 2007) 108% higher than the supply in 2010 (MOA 2010) 11
