Mushroom subsidy in Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu

Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu, verified 2026-09-13 against the Agriculture Department's own comprehensive programme document, found live on a THIRD UT domain (dnh.gov.in) that prior passes did not check, they checked ddd.gov.in (the combined-UT document repository, administrative notices only) and daman.nic.in (this pass independently re-confirmed: its "Agriculture Department, Daman" downloads page, live-refetched today, spans 2011-2023 notices, PM-KISAN beneficiary lists, seed-sale notices, a Bee-Keeping pollination support notification, PMFBY/NMSA committee orders, administrative circulars, not a scheme guideline, and zero mushroom mentions, matching ddd.gov.in's finding independently on a second domain).

dnh.gov.in (the Dadra & Nagar Haveli DISTRICT's own NIC-hosted site, distinct from both domains above, and live today) publishes, under Document > Agriculture, a single document titled plainly "Agriculture" (dated on the site as 23/08/2020, hosted on the government's S3WaaS CDN, fetched directly, this is a live document, not archive-recovered). It is a complete departmental programme statement: Aim & Objectives, Organisational Structure, then "SERVICES OFFERED" / "Schemes under Union Territory Budget" itemising EVERY specific input/equipment subsidy the department gives, - Supply of improved/HYV seed to SC/ST, small & marginal farmers: 50:50 loan-and-subsidy. - Manure & Fertilizer: 60:40 loan-and-subsidy. - Pesticides & Plant Protection Equipment: 50:50 loan-and-subsidy (ceiling Rs 200/season for pesticides, Rs 750 for equipment). - Fruit grafts: up to Rs 500 cost, SC/ST & small/marginal farmers with land up to 2 ha. - Agriculture implements, storage bins, electric motor/diesel pump-sets: 50% subsidy to SC/ST, 33% to marginal, 25% to small farmers (unit cost per NABARD norms)., plus "NEW INITIATIVE" items (poly house, net house, drip irrigation at the government farm) and, critically, a "NEW PROGRAMMES" section naming "National Horticulture Mission (NHM)" verbatim: "the department has implemented the centrally sponsored programme of National Horticulture Mission as 'Dadra & Nagar Haveli Horticulture Mission' which will cover almost all areas of horticulture like green house, poly house, organic farming, formation of Nurseries, Floriculture etc. The financial assistance will be provided to farmers as per norms of the National Horticulture Mission", i.e. this UT runs no independent horticulture rate of its own; it passes through whatever NHM/MIDH prescribes centrally, with no DNH-specific addition, and even naming that pass-through scheme by every one of its covered activities (green house, poly house, organic farming, nurseries, floriculture) still does not name mushroom.

The document was read end to end and searched (grep) for "mushroom": zero matches. This is a complete, itemised, current-for-its-publication statement of literally everything the department's Union Territory Budget and NHM pass-through fund, not a document-repository index that could simply be missing an unlinked file, so its silence on mushroom is a real finding.

Separately, a domain-wide Wayback CDX search across FIVE government domains connected to this UT (daman.nic.in, dnh.nic.in, ddd.gov.in, dnh.gov.in, diu.gov.in) for any URL containing "mushroom" returned zero results across all five, at any point in their captured history.

No rules recorded: the department's own complete Union Territory Budget scheme list, plus its NHM pass-through programme, prices no mushroom-specific unit. Central MIDH's own mushroom rules already apply to a DNH&DD farmer regardless of this record.
