Subscribe/Renew Journal
An insight into local healthcare systems and traditional knowledge about medicinal plants is always instrumental in providing nascent ideas to pharmaceutical industries to develop strategic research programmes for the identification of new bioactive compounds for the production of synthetic drug molecules. Many a times this undocumented information is lost much before it is realized by the users since it passed from generation to generation orally. For strengthening the proper usage and conservation of the medicinal traditions prevailing in the Chanawada village of Girwa block in Udaipur, a survey was undertaken to document the medicinal plants used by the tribal inhabitants of the area. Traditional uses of 24 medicinal plants occurring in wild habitat were recorded and are being presented in this paper.
