Toby Hemenway - How Permaculture Can Save Humanity and the Earth, but Not Civilization. Water On The Table. Fomes fomentarius. Paul Stamets at the 10th LOHAS conference. Agarikon Extract (Fomitopsis) Mycoforestry. Mycoforestry is an ecological forest management system implemented to enhance forest ecosystems and plant communities through the introduction of mycorrhizal and saprotrophic fungi.

Mycoforestry

Mycoforestry is considered a type of permaculture[1] and can be implemented as a beneficial component of an agroforestry system. Mycoforestry can enhance the yields of tree crops and produce edible mushrooms, an economically valuable product. By integrating plant-fungal associations into a forestry management system, native forests can be preserved, wood waste can be recycled back into the ecosystem, planted restoration sites are enhanced, and the sustainability of forest ecosystems are improved.[2] Mycoforestry is an alternative to the practice of clearcutting, which removes dead wood from forests, thereby diminishing nutrient availability and reducing soil depth.[3] Selection of fungal species[edit] Saprotrophic fungi[edit]
