Abstract:Conservation of threatened species of medicinal plants and their habitats and Support for livelihood security through
protection of wild medicinal plants based on sustainable harvesting. This deals about the promotion of sustainable medicinal
plant cultivation through the process of building IPR and field gene bank. In-situ conservation of medicinal plants in and around
the mountains and national park areas and ex-situ techniques involving cryopreservation and conducting ethno medical survey to
explore utilization of medicinal plants. This involves the research on the propagation and cultivation methods of selected
indigenous medicinal plants for human and livestock disease. Impact on wild populations of medicinal plants through harvesting
and other activities that involves the conservation of medicinal plants on-farm pilot propagation and cultivation trials of
medicinal plants on past, present and future scenario. Development and implementation of appropriate management options and
guidelines for sustainable harvesting of medicinal plants by applying various conservation techniques. The output will be field
gene bank established serving research and conservation. Guidelines for sustainable harvest of medicinal plants and its
Cultivation practices can be developed by providing income generating activities such as incentives and also creating market
opportunities for both import and export and for formalizing traditional medicine.
