2004年，植物性药物的全球销售额估计超过150亿美元。植物性药物的国际贸易正在成为全球经济的主要力量，发展中国家和工业化国家的需求都在增加。然而，植物性药物贸易的爆炸性增长伴随着质量、一致性和效力问题，并导致与传统田间种植植物或野生收获有关的严重健康问题。本文讨论了药用植物的栽培、收获和生产过程中存在的问题。我们建议确保植物性药物的安全性和有效性，保护药用植物的遗传多样性。另一种选择是在受控环境下种植药用植物，这可以精确控制优化的环境条件，最大限度地提高生物量和药用代谢物的产量，并确保植物不受生物和非生物污染，具有一致的生化特征。受控环境技术还确保了特定的受控环境胁迫的应用，通过诱导植物的自然生化变化来优化药物代谢物的生产。
The estimated value of the worldwide sales of plant-based medicines exceeds $15 billion in the year 2004. The international trade of plant-based medicines is becoming a major strength in the global economy and the demand is increasing in both developing and industrialized nations. However, the explosive growth of the trade of plant-based medicines has been accompanied by issues of quality, consistency and efficacy and leading to serious health problems associated with traditional field-grown plants or wild-harvest. This article discusses the problems associated with the cultivation, harvesting and process of medicinal plants for the production of phyto-pharmaceuticals. We suggest that it is necessary to ensure the safety and efficacy of plant-based medicines and to protect the genetic diversity of medicinal plants. An alternative is the cultivation of medicinal plants under controlled environments, which allows the precise control of optimized environmental conditions with maximum biomass and medicinal metabolites production and ensures the plants free from biotic and abiotic contaminations with consistent biochemical profiles. The controlled environment technology also ensures application of specific, controlled environment stresses that can optimize the production of medicinal metabolites by inducing natural biochemical changes in plants.
