印度丰富的生物多样性分布在其生态区域。传统药用植物因其价值而得到认可，它们构成了大量印度人口的生计和粮食安全来源。种植药用植物也是一种收入来源，从而提高当地社区的生活水平，减少贫困。然而，今天印度的药用栖息地和生态系统正在经历巨大的压力，以满足各种医药和芳香化学品相关行业的需求。本文的目的是综合现有关于印度药用植物种植现状的信息，探索印度药用植物种植的潜在机会和制约因素。根据两个案例，即喜马拉雅中部地区的Bhotiya部落和Biligiri Ranga-Swamy Temple Tiger保护区的Soliga部落，试图提出一个利用药用植物种植促进印度粮食安全的框架。最后，对印度药用植物与粮食安全进行了SWOT分析。
India’s rich biodiversity is distributed across its ecological regions. Traditional medicinal plants are recognised for their value and they constitute source of livelihood and food security for large Indian population. Cultivation of medicinal plants is also a source of income; thereby improve the standard of living for local communities and reduce poverty. Yet, today Indian medicinal habitat and ecosystem are going through tremendous pressure for meeting the requirement of various pharmaceutical and aroma-chemicals related industries. The objective of this paper is to synthesis the existing information on current status; explore the potential opportunities and constraints in medicinal plant cultivation in India. Based on the documentation of two cases i.e., Bhotiya tribe of Central Himalayan Region and Soliga tribe of Biligiri Ranga-swamy Temple Tiger Reserve (BRTTR), an attempt has been made to suggest a framework for harnessing medicinal plant cultivation for promoting food security in India. Finally, SWOT analysis of medicinal plants and food security in India has been presented.
