MEDICINAL PLANTS
PREAMBLE
Medicinal Plants form the major resource base of our indigenous health care
traditions. The outreach and acceptability of AYUSH systems, both nationally as
well as globally, are dependent on uninterrupted availability of quality medicinal
plants based raw material. More than 90% of the species used in trade continue to
be sourced from the wild of which about 2/3rd are harvested by destructive means.
The Cultivation of medicinal plants, therefore, is the key to meeting the raw
material needs of the AYUSH industry besides offering opportunities for higher
levels of income, crop diversification and growth of exports. Indian exports of
medicinal plants and herbs are mostly in the form of raw herbs and extracts and
account for almost 60-70% of the current exports of herbal/AYUSH products. The
export of value added items require product development, setting up of processing
facilities, quality assurance and brand promotion. Increasing concerns of
unsustainable collection from the wild, disappearance of certain species on the one
hand and concerns of quality and standardization on the other make it imperative to
promote cultivation of species critical to AYUSH systems of medicine through
appropriate financial incentives, policy, infrastructural and marketing support in a
synergistic manner.
OBJECTIVES
Support cultivation of medicinal plants which is the key to integrity, quality,
efficacy and safety of the AYUSH systems of medicines by integrating medicinal
plants in the farming systems, offer an option of crop diversification and enhance
incomes of farmers.
Cultivation following the Good Agricultural and Collection Practices (GACPs) to
promote standardization and quality assurance and thereby enhance acceptability
of the AYUSH systems globally and increase exports of value added items like
herbal extracts, phyto-chemicals, dietary supplements, cosmeceuticals and
AYUSH products.
