Understanding the constraints involved in the adoption of medicinal plant cultivation is the most important step to design future policies and action plans for effective outcomes. Keeping this in view, a model survey-based study involving medicinal plant cultivators by using a purposing sampling technique was carried out. Additionally, farmers identified via exploration of various channels from public and personal sources were geo-tagged using Geographic Information System (GIS). The digital maps shall act as a platform to establish linkage between concerned stakeholders viz. policymakers, traders, industries, regulatory agencies, and farmers. The scope of the study was limited to progressive farmers cultivating commercially important medicinal plants i.e. Curcuma longa L. (Haldi), Aloe vera (Linn.) Burm.f (Ghritkumari), Phyllanthus emblica L. (Amla), Ocimum sanctum L. (Tulsi), Rauvolfia serpentina (L.) Benth. ex Kurz (Sarpgandha). The survey questionnaire was developed through the expert advisory method, followed by statistical validation based on achieving Chronbach’s alpha value of 0.6. Statistical analysis of the responses by applying Mean Percentage Score (MPS) and significance determination using Chi-square test indicated prominent correlation among small and large farmers in context to technical, trade, social, and awareness aspects. The study highlighted the non-availability of quality planting material, lack of awareness about good agricultural and packaging practices, less knowledge about agro-climatic suitability, and commercialization avenues acted as one of the major constraints. The study will act as a basis to frame policies for promoting medicinal plant cultivation as a commercially successful crop diversification model in the region.

确定药用植物采用的限制:印度旁遮普邦的模型地理空间研究

了解采用药用植物栽培所涉及的限制因素是设计未来政策和行动计划以获得有效结果的最重要步骤。考虑到这一点,使用有目的的抽样技术进行了一项涉及药用植物栽培者的基于调查的模型研究。此外,通过探索公共和个人来源的各种渠道确定的农民使用地理信息系统 (GIS) 进行地理标记。数字地图应作为在相关利益相关者之间建立联系的平台,即。政策制定者、贸易商、行业、监管机构和农民。该研究的范围仅限于种植具有重要商业价值的药用植物,即 Curcuma longa L. (Haldi)、芦荟的进步农民(Linn.) Burm.f (Ghritkumari), Phyllanthus emblica L. (Amla), Ocimum sanctum L. (Tulsi), Rauvolfia serpentina(L.) 本斯。前库尔兹(Sarpgandha)。调查问卷是通过专家咨询的方法制定的,然后在达到 Chronbach's alpha 值 0.6 的基础上进行统计验证。通过应用平均百分比分数 (MPS) 和使用卡方检验确定显着性对响应进行的统计分析表明,在技术、贸易、社会和意识方面,小农和大农之间存在显着的相关性。该研究强调了无法获得优质种植材料、缺乏对良好农业和包装实践的认识、对农业气候适宜性的了解较少以及商业化途径是主要制约因素之一。
