Medicinal plants play an important ROLE IN HUMAN LIFE TO COMBAT DISEASES
SINCE TIME IMMEMORIAL. The rural folks and tribals in India even now
depend largely on the surrounding plants/forests for their day-to-day
needs. Medicinal plant are being looked upon not only as a source of
health care but also as a source of income. The value of medicinal
plants related trade in India is of the order of 5.5 billion US$ (Exim
Report-1997) and is further increasing day-by-day. The international
market of herbal products is estimated to be US $ 62 BILLION. India
share in the global market of medicinal plants trade is less than 0.5%.
In view of the innate Indian strengths, which include diverse
eco-systems for growth of medicinal plants, technical/farming capacity,
strong manufacturing sector, the medicinal plants sector can provide a
huge export opportunity after fulfilling domestic needs.
Govt of India has been implementing Contractual Farming Scheme under which financial assistance @ 30% of the project cost subject to a maximum of Rs. 9.00 lakhs, is provided to farmers / growers for cultivation of identified medicinal plants. The Scheme is implemented through State Government. The Goovt of India had identified list of 32 medicinal plants for cultivation and development on priority basics-I. However, as per Operational Guidelines, projects for cultivation of other commercially important plants can also be considered for which assured market exists.
The present e-book also covers systematic account of most different plants with pictures used in medicines. It covers Medicinal Plants containing alkaloids, steroids, flavonoids, glycosides, terpenoids, additives and other active matabolites.
