Situated within the peaceful environment of Baradari Gardens in Patiala, the Government Mushroom Laboratory stands as a beacon of agricultural innovation and plays a pivotal role in the regional agriculture landscape. With a dedicated mission, the laboratory annually strives to produce approximately 5.5 metric tons of mushroom spawn.

The intricate processes undertaken within the laboratory’s confines contribute to the generation of high-quality spawn, a vital resource in the cultivation of both button and oyster mushrooms.The laboratory’s significance is not confined to its production alone; it serves as a nucleus for advancing the agricultural diversity of the region.

The carefully cultivated mushroom spawn becomes a catalyst for sustainable cultivation practices as it is strategically distributed to 14 districts within the state. This dispersion ensures a wide-reaching impact, helping in the growth of mushroom cultivation at the grassroots level and diversifying agricultural practices in the surrounding regions.

The laboratory’s commitment to regional development emerges beyond its production capabilities. It actively engages with local farmers and enthusiasts, providing guidance and resources to promote sustainable mushroom cultivation practices. Through these efforts, the Government Mushroom Laboratory not only meets its production targets but also acts as a catalyst for agricultural innovation and economic growth in the surrounding areas.
