Through mushroom cultivation, farmers can earn good money in a short span of time

Mushroom cultivation has slowly gained momentum all over India and the farming community is coming forward to reap the benefits of the nutritional security & subsidiary income through this venture.

Moreover, technological advancement has made it possible for farmers to grow mushrooms of different varieties in hilly or cold areas too.

To encourage more farmers to take up or start mushroom farming, the government of Haryana has decided to provide them subsidy for setting up a mushroom unit.

In the past few years, many farmers in Haryana have earned good profits by cultivating mushrooms on a large scale. Hence now the state government wants other farmers also to do mushroom farming and earn good money.

In this regard, applications have been invited by the Horticulture Department from farmers who wish to set up a mushroom unit. Interested farmers can apply at the link given below –
