Mushroom Farming Subsidy in Odisha
Odisha's Directorate of Horticulture runs sustained mushroom promotion — production unit assistance, spawn supply and training — alongside PMEGP, NABARD and NHB support for larger commercial units.
How much mushroom subsidy can you get in Odisha?
Mushroom farming in Odisha is supported through the State Horticulture Mission / MIDH route, which assists mushroom production units, spawn production and composting units with per-unit assistance commonly notified at 40-50% of the approved cost. PMEGP adds 25-35% margin money, and NHB gives 40% back-ended capital subsidy on credit-linked commercial projects. Rates and per-unit ceilings follow the current year's state notification.
