Abstract

Hariram Chaudhary, 38, a resident of Pathariya-4, Kailali has been an avid vegetable farmer for quite some time, but old farming means and resources didn’t make him much economically. He was not aware of the new agricultural methodologies and farming techniques. Hariram learnt the modern techniques on mushroom cultivation through Practical Answer Services jointly implemented by Practical Action and READ Nepal in Kailali district. After receiving the technical ideas Hariram cultivated mushroom in his land. “After learning the new ideas, I bought mushroom's seeds of 120 rupee and cultivated in my land. Finally I have been able to produce good amount of mushroom and earned 2000 rupee," says Hariram adding further, "I had no such good ideas to cultivate mushroom before, the knowledge I received from Practical Answers is very useful to me." Hariram is planning to expand the mushroom cultivation in future. He says," Now I am confident that the knowledge I received is very fruitful to me. I am planning to cultivate more mushroom in future," a confident Hariram says.
