About the Book

Despite current attractive economic growth in the country, poverty remains a significant development challenge, in the Indian Himalayan Regions, for several biophysical and socioeconomic constraints. Developing a sustainable livelihood option in rural areas is considerably more complex and challenging. A majority of the poor in the regions live in remote areas and depend heavily on biologically occurring natural resources. Realizing the importance of medicinal and aromatic plants, herbs, and agricultural plants for generating sustainable rural livelihood options through stringent R&D and extensional activities are needed for sustainable utilization of locally available and commercially valuable natural bio-resources in a focused manner. The rural appraisal survey was conducted to develop an information database of the plants such as their species, uses, ethnobotany, phenology of fruits and flowers, distribution, etc. The information is collected through formal and informal discussions with knowledgeable people of the Indian trans-Himalayan region. This Databook has been developed to provide a comprehensive database on medicinal and aromatic plants and agroproduce present in the Indian Trans Himalayan region.
