Medicinal plants
Medicinal plants play a crucial role in agriculture, offering a sustainable approach to healthcare and cultivation. Integrating medicinal plants into agricultural practices not only enhances biodiversity but also provides farmers with an alternative income source. These plants, known for their therapeutic properties, contribute to the development of herbal medicines and nutraceuticals. Agroecologically, cultivating medicinal plants aligns with sustainable farming practices, promoting natural pest control and reducing the reliance on synthetic chemicals. The cultivation of medicinal plants fosters a harmonious relationship between agriculture and healthcare, emphasizing the potential for holistic and environmentally friendly approaches to both fields. This integration represents a promising avenue for diversified and resilient agricultural systems.
