Mushroom Cultivation as an entrepreneur provides ample of opportunities for sustaining rural livelihood. Krishi Vigyan Kendra, ICAR-Indian Institute of Sugarcane research, Lucknow is actively involved to provide fifteen days vocational trainings on button mushroom cultivation in growing season. Main objective of trainings are to promote mushroom production as a self-employment venture, which can ultimately improve the socioeconomic condition of farmers. It has been also observed that out of 250 trainees( from year 2017to 2021)) 85% trainees have adopted mushroom cultivation. While major constraints were lack of government support (96.5%) along with less remuneration being a seasonal activity (87.3%) and non-availability of quality spawn (85.5%) in adoption of this venture. It was analyzed through answer of respondents.
