Project Objectives -:
Ensure the Ex-situ maintenance of various listed sensitive plant species (rare,
endangered, threatened and endemic ones) of medicinal and aromatic importance in 2.5
ha of land and establishing site for nature interpretation for long run scientific studies
and for use of various stakeholders.
Development of the site (Alpine Research Station, Tungnath) as educational tourism
spot.
Development of the large scale planting materials (approximate 15 lakh seedlings) to
meet out the growing demand of planting materials by different stakeholders for the
purpose of new investigation and cultivation/plantation.
Observation on baseline climatic information (i.e. minimum and maximum temperature,
humidity, rainfall, snow fall, etc.) of the project site and observation on growth and yield
of selected species under simulated conditions (OTCs).
Transfer of developed information, technology and planting materials (elite one) to
farmer/CBOs for livelihood opportunity through cultivation (approximate 10 h lands) and
marketing as well as ex situ conservation.

Summary of progress -: (with in 200 words)
The project was sanctioned in the month of March, 2016. After completing all the
administrative formalities and receiving the grant from NMHS project office the actual work in the
project could be undertaken in the month of July 2016 after the appointments of project staff.
Considering all the difficulties, the work has been done on survey in different high altitude villages of
district Uttarkashi, Tehri, Rudraprayag, Chamoli, Bageshwar and Pithoragarh for knowing current
cultivation status of selected species and farmer’s awareness about importance of medicinal and
aromatic plants cultivation. Simultaneously, seeds of different selected species have been collected
from different natural populations as well as mother stock available at Alpine Field Research Station,
Tungnath for development of seedlings. The compilation of information collected during survey on
current cultivation status of selected species and farmer’s awareness regarding cultivation of MAPs
going on. For multiplication purpose sowing of seeds of different identified species is continue. The
compiled information and achievements of seedlings development will be submited in annual report
of the project in the month of April 2017. The process of purchasing of sanctioned non-recurring
items in project is also going on and possibly the job will be done shortly. The following work is
under progress in project.
1. Processing of collected seeds.
2. Soil preparation and seeds sowing in seedling trays.
3. Process of purchasing of sanctioned non-recurring items.
4. Searching of lands for development of one new site for nature lover and as educational
tourism spot (NIS).
5. Process on organizing induction workshop cum training programme of selected farmers
in the month of February 2017.
6. Collection of climatic data (minimum and maximum temperature, humidity, rainfall,
snow fall, etc.) from field site at Tungnath.
7. Monitoring of ongoing project work.
