I am interested in climate change vulnerability of agriculture and health in Himalaya and want to know if anyone is interested in terms of novel book chapter?
This may facilitate for a book project.
Yes Dr Pandey, I can contribute a chapter that accounts the impacts of climate change on medicinal plants and their dependent communities. Since we are aware about the medicinal plant upshifts and adjustments in phenophases, their seasonal calendar and harvesting sites are no longer coinciding. All primary and old growth forests are over-exploited or intruded and even the indigenous species are out-competed. In these connections, scoping the application of non-indigenous species and secondary sites may complement the for primary health care promptly because the mountain communities are distant from central development and devoid of amenities. Again its rational because the ethnomedicinal systems have continued to evolve after the shock of original contact, decreasing availability of indigenous medicinal plants and the introduction of new species.
If possible, pl write a chapter. Sorry I could not see your response. Thanks. Pl do.
I am intrested and i want to contribute, Please inform the deadline.
