With its vast hills and forests, Assam is the home of a variety of medicinal herbs and plants. About 300 types of medicinal herbs and plants are known to exist in abundance in the State. An approximate calculation states that only about 5- 10% of the plants and herbs are commercially cultivated for extraction purposes and hence present a huge resource.
Hence, this sector presents huge resources waiting to be utilized and opportunities exist in plantation & cultivation of medicinal herbs & plants, herbal cosmetics, medicinal plant extract etc.
