Medicinal and Aromatic plants are the rich wealth of Himalayan region. Research is focused on collection, evaluation and maintenance of important medicinal and aromatic plants of the region, standardization of their propagation and nursery management techniques. Efforts have also been at determining optimum time of oil recovery in lemon grass and evaluating oil yielding potential of different rose species. It has been discovered that natural reserves of the precious herbs are fast diminishing. Some of the endangered species from the region are: Atees, Jatamansi, Salam misri, Dolu or Arak, Somlata, Mirang, Mahamaida, Salam punja, and Pathar long. Nevertheless, suitable nursery raising practices of some of the important medicinal and aromatic plants have been standardized.
