Abstract
The study was conducted in five blocks in Kangra district of Himachal Pradesh which fall in two
agro-climatic zones i.e. zone I and II. The technology gap showed that there was potential for improving
mushroom production in the research area. The net returns from mushroom farming were significantly
higher than those from cereals and other crops. Utilization of disinfectants and inputs like spawn
over recommended quantities was noted as a positive technology gap.
