Chairman State Medicinal Plants Board West Bengal

Dated: 21 st June, 2003 FOREWORD

Medicinal Plants have a great role in human life. India has rich diversity of medicinal plants. Till now 90% of herbs used in manufacturing Ayurveda, Siddha, Unani and Homoeopathy medicines in the country are supplied from the wild. The wild source of herbs is speedily shrinking day by day. Hence, it is felt that there should be sustainable alternative through cultivation of medicinal plants. Such cultivation will not only protect the endangered species but will be an alternative of the wild collection. It will be a good source of income to the cultivators as well.

Different departments of the State Government, non-Government organizations and individuals in the private sectors are making efforts in different directions to produce medicinal plants in the State. It was felt necessary that an appropriate mechanism for co-ordination of these agencies and implemention of policies on medicina1 plants should be adopted at the Aational level. As such, a nodal body has been formed called the National Medicinal Plants Board (Nf'.1PB). The State Government has also constituted a similar body at the State level, named as State Medicinal Plants BoaFd (SMPB), West Bengal on lOth January, 2002.

The Policy of State Medicinal Plants Board is to promote cultivation, storage, processing and marketing of medicinal plants produced in West Bengal so that it can be an alternative economy to the poor people and also intending cultivators/farmers. To give some impetus to the cultivation and other development in the sector of medicinal plants in the country, the National Medicinal Plants Board has formulated schemes for financial assistance and guidelines for implementing the projects. The present booklet has been prepared to propagate those schemes and guidelines throughout our State, following the schemes and guidelines of National Medicinal Plants Board. Implementation of these guidelines will surely produce a sustainable alternative to the wild collection of medicinal plants and will also render a prosperous economy to the farmers and cultivators at the grass root level. It is expected that our State will take part in the International Market of the medicinal plants in near future through implementation of the promotional and commercial schemes.

The State Medicinal Paints Board will surely flourish in near future. I congratulate the efforts of the Member-Secretary and other memebrs of the Board who have contributed something in preparing the present handbook of the State Medicinal Plants Boards on Promotional and Commercial Schemes of National Medicinal Plants Board and its publication. Besides this handbook, a book on cultivitation of medicinal plants and a Compact Disc, both in Bengali, have been published by State Medicinal Plants Board recently. All these books and CD will be of immense help to the cultivators of medicinal plants in our State.

MARKET SCENARIO OF MEDICINAL PLANTS:

Domestic Scenario: Medicinal plants market in the countly is today unorganised due to several problems. Medicinal plants are a living resource, exhaustible if overused and sustainable if used with care and wisdom. At present 95% collection of medicinal plants is from th.e wild. Current practices of harvesting are unsustainable and many ~tudies have highlighted depletion of resource base. Many studies have confirmed that pharmaceutical companies are also responsible for inefficient, imperfect, informal and opportunistic marketing of medicinal plants. There is a vast, secretive and largely unregulated trade in medicinal plants, mainly from the wild, which continues to grow dramatically

13 State Medicinal Plants Board in the absence of serious policy attention with environmental planning. Confusion. also exists in the identification of !Jlant materials where the origin of a particular drug is assigned to more than one plant, due to which, adulteration is common in such cases. All these affect the market both directly and indirectly.

Marketing is a daunting problem, which besets the development of the plant- based industry in developing countries. Marketability of products will be a crucial factor in determining the failure or success of this sector. The market outlets can be for local use and for export. As for local use some products could reach the consumer directly while others have to be either further processed or used as secondary con;ponents in other industrial products. A clear understanding of both the supply- side issues and the factors driving the demand and size of the medicinal plants market is a vital step towards planning for both the conservation and sustainable use of the habitats of these plants as well as for ensurng continued availability of the basic ingredients used to address the health needs of the majority of the world's population.

Brief Global Scenario:

According to the report of the Worlds Health Organisation (WHO), a large population of the world relies on the traditional systems of medicines, largely plant based to meet their primary health care needs. India at present (2000) exports herbal materials and medicines to the tune of Rs. 446 crores only while it has been estimated that this can be raised to Rs. 3000 crores by 2005. The Chinese export based on plants including raw drugs, therapeutics and other estimated to be around Rs. 18,000- Rs. 22,000 crores. In view of the innate Indian strengths which interalia include diverse eco- systems, technical and farming capacity and a strong manufacturing sector, the medicinal plants area can become a huge export opportunity after fulfilling domestic needs.

Export: Apart from requirement of medicinal plants for internal consumptions, India exports crude drugs mainly to developed countries. viz. USA, Germany, France, Switzerland, UK and Japan, who share between them 75 to 80 percent of the total export of crude drugs from India. The principal herbal drugs that have been finding a good market in foreign countries are Aconite, Aloe, Belladona, Acoru~ Cinchona, Cassiatora, Dioscorea, DIgitalis, Ephedra, Plantago (Isabgol), Cassia (Senna) etc. .

APPEAL: All concerns are apprised in Public Interest that the export of undermentioned 29- plants, plant portions, their derivatives and extracts if obtained from wild sources are

prohibited under law (Foreign Trade Development & Regulation Act 1982). These prohibited plants are: 1. Cycas beddomei (Beddomes cycad) 2. Vanda coerulea (Blue vanda) 3. Saussurea costus (Kuth) 4.

We appeal to the stakeholders not to use these endangered species from the wild & help in conserving our medicinal wealth. It becomes our dUty to cultivate medicinal plants in a big way to conserve herbal wealth for health and prosperity.
