Medicinal plant production, especially of species with moderate or low ecological requirements, is totally justifiable in regions where it is not possible or worthwhile to produce the standard crops (rocky, sandy, saline, poor and waterlogged soils, abandoned mountainous pastures, etc.). MAP cultivation is more sustainable than medicinal plant gathering, which is strictly regulated by law. There are several advantages to MAP cultivation, such as the production of raw material of standard quality, use of available machinery, processing facilities and means of production, more rational use of soil resources, yield planning, financial effects, preservation of species whose collection has been prohibited, etc.). In the near future, these plants will therefore be the main enterprise of primary nurseries and small- and mediumsize enterprises of the agricultural sector. Box 2 lists MAPs with known or partially known cultivation technology and Box 3 those of unknown cultivation technology. Box 2. Medicinal and aromatic plants with known or partially known cultivation technology and sold on the Serbian market Species with known cultivation technology Althaea officinalis Angelica archangelica Borago officinalis Carum carvi Chamomilla recutita Coriandrum sativum Cynara scolimus Foeniculuma vulgare Glycyrrhiza glabra Hyssopus officinalis Juglans regia Lavandula sp.

138 WORKING GROUP ON MEDICINAL AND AROMATIC PLANTS: FIRST MEETING Box 3. Medicinal plants with unknown cultivation technology sold on the Serbian market. Achillea sp. Geum urbanum Aconitum sp. Helichrysum arenarium Acorus calamus Hepatica nobilis Adonis vernalis Herniaria glabra Angelica silvestris Herniaria hirsuta Allium victorialis Hyosciamus niger Arctostaphylos uva-ursi Juniperus communis Artemisia absinthium Lycopodium clavatum Aruncus dioicus Menyanthes trifoliata Atropa belladonna Ononis spinosa Carlina acaulis Orchis morio Castanea sativa Pinus mugo Centaurium erythraea subsp. erythraea Potentila erecta Colchicum autumnale Primula elatior Convallaria majalis Primula veris Crocus sativus Prunus laurocerasus Daphne alpina Pulmonaria officinalis Daphne blagayana Ruscus aculeatus Drosera rotundifolia Sambucus nigra Digitalis laevigata Sanicula europaea Digitalis ferruginea Solidago virgaurea Digitalis grandiflora Symphytum officinale Digitalis lanata Teucrium montanum Dryopterix filix-mas Thymus serpyllum Fragaria vesca Vaccinium myrtillus Gentiana asclepiata Vaccinium vitis-idaea Gentiana cruciata Veratrum nigrum Gentiana lutea Verbascum densiflorum Gentiana punctata The poor tradition of MAP cultivation in our country – less than 5000 ha under such crops (Table 2) – is not an excuse for low investment and insufficient attention to this agricultural sector. Besides production of medicinal plant remedies, seed production and the sale of transplants can also generate a significant income. Table 2. Estimation of areas cultivated under MAPs in Serbia (source: personal communications from specialists from the Institute for Medicinal Plant Research and private sector) Species Area (ha) Species Area (ha) Althaea officinalis L. 80-100 Majorana hortensis Moench. 20 Anethum graveolens L. 500 Malva silvestris L. 10-30 Angelica archangelica L. 10-20 Melissa officinalis L. 100-300 Artemisia dracunculus L. 20 Mentha piperita L. 800-1200 Calendula officinalis L. 50-70 Ocimum basilicum L. 50-70 Carum carvi L. 50-150 Oenothera biennis L. 20-30 Chamomilla recutita (L.)
