Man has always been facinated by the diversity of life. Huminity
derived all of its food and many medicines and industrial products
from wild and domesticated plant life. Kashmir is bestowed with a
unique biodiversity comprising of different climatic zones and wide
range of plant species. Plants are crucial for the diversity of
terrestrial life. The medicinal values of plants play vital role in
general health of mankind. Allopathic drugs cause many side effects
as compared to the extracts of medicinal plants. All indigenous
remedies, whether traditional or modern, have originated directly
or indirectly from folklore and rituals or measuring hold to the
treasure of folk medicinal knowledge and ethnomedical botany. With
rapid population growth and the experience of economic development
by the means of outside interventions, the natural habitats have
already been destroyed to considerable extent. This situation is
particularly critical in the Himalayan region that is documented in
this work.Conservation of biodiversity calls for both global
attention and prompt action at regional level also.
