How much area is required for a 100 kg/day mushroom farm?

About 3,000–4,000 sq ft is enough for two 18×40 ft rooms (1,440 sq ft built), a grading and dispatch area, a store and movement space. Compost is usually bought in at this scale, so no compost yard is needed.

What is the monthly profit from a 100 kg/day mushroom farm?

Two rooms give about 3,200 kg a month. At ₹120/kg that is ₹3.8 L of sales; running costs on bought-in compost are about ₹94.4/kg, leaving roughly ₹82,000 a month. The EPC incl. GST pays back in about 32 months; a sanctioned subsidy shortens that.

Is a 100 kg/day project eligible for NHM/MIDH subsidy?

Yes. MIDH pays 40% of a ₹30 lakh production-unit norm — up to ₹12 lakh (50%, up to ₹15 lakh, in the North-East and hill states), back-ended against a sanctioned DPR. NHB is the other route; the two are a choice, never a stack. We provide a bankable DPR aligned to the scheme.

How long does it take to set up a 100 kg/day mushroom farm?

60–90 days from order to handover, the timeline in our quotation. Your plinth, three-phase power and water are prepared in parallel; the first picking comes about five weeks after the rooms are filled.

Why Start at 100 kg/day?

Lowest entry barrier for first-time mushroom entrepreneurs — proven, financeable scale
Compost is bought in, so no compost yard — saves the ₹6.5 lakh compost unit and its client-scope yard civil work
A MIDH subsidy (up to ₹12 lakh) fits a project this size — one bank loan and one subsidy route, never two schemes stacked
Operations are manageable by a small team (4–6 workers + 1 supervisor)
Easy to expand to 300/500 kg by adding rooms in modular phases — no rebuild needed
