SKUAST-K Transfers HADP-Funded Exotic Mushroom Technology to Agriculture Department for Scaling up High-Value, Circular Bioeconomy

In a major step towards high-value and circular agriculture, Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences & Technology of Kashmir has transferred its patented technologies for Shiitake, King Oyster and Enoki mushrooms, along with associated strains, to the Department of Agriculture for wider dissemination across J&K.

Developed by the Mushroom Research & Training Centre (MRTC) under HADP-10, the technology enables cultivation using locally available woody biomass, including apple-pruning waste, turning agricultural waste into wealth while reducing biomass burning.

Prof. Nazir Ganai, Honorable Vice-Chancellor, SKUAST-K, highlighted the potential of exotic mushrooms for high-value, resource-efficient agriculture and agri-entrepreneurship. University estimates suggest apple-pruning wood alone could support nearly 3.4 lakh tonnes of premium mushrooms annually, with an estimated market value of around โ‚น17,000 crore.

Director Agriculture Shri Sartaj Ahmad Shah assured support for scaling up the technology, while Director Extension Prof. Raihana Habib Kanth highlighted HADPโ€™s role in strengthening the research-to-farmer continuum.

Dr. Khursheed Ahmad Bhat, In-charge MRTC, presented the production technologies and the Centreโ€™s achievements, including four patented mushroom strains/technologies. SKUAST-K student entrepreneurs Munnazah Naseer and Kamran Showkat also shared their pilot-scale experiences.

From waste to wealth. From research to enterprise. From agriculture to bioeconomy.
