Dear Group Members,
Yesterday I was in forest for my surveys. I found some tribal
collecting the roots of flowering Parthenium for the local herb
traders. They were not aware of purpose but informed that traders are
purchasing it in fair amount. Traders want to keep it secret but
informed that present demand is of 10 quintals dry roots. I am keeping
close view on it. If you have any information please share. If it is
going as medicine then it is very good news but if the purpose is of
adulteration then attention is required.

regards
