Cultivation of Medicinal Plants in India and Government Support

Medicinal Plants play an improtant 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 dollar (exim Bank Report-1997) and is further increasing day-by-day. The international market of herbal products is estimated to be US $ 62 billion. India’s 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.


The Government of India has recently set-up a national level body, the NMPB for the growth and development pf medicinal plants sector (MPS) in the country. There is a need to streamline and strengthen MPS with a view to promote integrated development by co-ordinating, stimulating production, processing, marketing and establishing a sound infrastructure of the sector in the country. Government of India aims to make the cultivation of medicinal plants and its sustainable management, a people’s movement.

The varied agro-climate conditions in the India make it suitable for growing a wide range and variety of valuable medicinal plants. The production of medicinal plants being labour intensive, generates increased employment opportunities for the farmers particularly the rural masses/tribals and enhances their incomes. Growing medicinal plants is much more remunerative as compared to growing cereals, horticulture crops etc.

The present e-book of Government of India Schemes and guidelines is a set of interventions to streamline the medicinal plants sector, achieve high quality commercial production and create post-harvesting infrastructure through financial assistance. These interventions should lead to increased production with emphasis on quality and entrepreneurship in every aspect of the medicinal plants sector industry and export.

अमेरिकन केसर, 65 हजार रुपए प्रति किलो

Submitted by Aksh on 22 April, 2015 - 22:33
अमेरिकन केसर
धार के पास कुक्षी के ग्राम बड़दा के किसान बाबूलाल ने एक बीघा जमीन पर अमेरीकन हाईब्रीड़ केसर के बीजों से केसर उगाई है। उन्होंने एक बीघा में 50 ग्राम बीज रोपे। इससे करीब 5 माह में 10 किलो केसर का उत्पादन हुआ। कश्मीर की केसर के नाम से ख्यात इस केसर को लैब टेस्टिंग के लिए मुंबई भेजा गया है। यदि टेस्टिंग में केसर का 45 प्रतिशत अर्क निकला तो 60 से 65 हजार रुपए प्रति किलो का भाव मिल सकता है।

किसान बाबूलाल ने 1999 में धवली मुसली को प्रथम बार अपने खेत में उगाया था, तब से उनका नाम धवली मुसली रख दिया गया। अब सिर्फ कश्मीर जैसे ठंडे इलाके में पैदा होने वाली अमेरिकन केसर उगा दी है। उन्होंने बताया गुजरात के गांधी नगर स्थित महात्मा गांधी संस्थान से प्रेरणा मिली। वहीं से बीज भी नि:शुल्क दिया गया। 2500 पौधे तैयार कर अपने खेत में नवंबर में लगाए थे, पांच महीने में उपज आ गई है। किसान बाबूलाल ने केसर को लैब टेस्ट के लिए मुंबई भेजा है। अब तक बाबूलाल को भी नहीं पता है कि यह बिकेगी कहां। उन्होंने बताया गुजरात में संस्थान से ही संपर्क किया था, जहां से श्रीनगर के एक विशेषज्ञ का नंबर मिला। वे 28 अप्रैल को बड़दा आकर फसल देखेंगे। तब तक मुंबई से लैब टेस्टिंग की रिपोर्ट भी आ जाएगी। उन्होंने ही बताया है कि 45 प्रतिशत से अधिक केसर का अंश आया तो बाजार मूल्य 60 से 75 हजार रुपए तक मिल सकता है। 09404480905
