| Abstract: | A preliminary survey of an age-old veterinary practice of the western part of Almora district, which is inhabited by hill communities, was made. The main emphasis was given to 24 most common livestock diseases and disorders. For the treatment of these veterinary diseases and disorders, locals use about 57 plants. The biomedicines are composed of single drug or combination of drugs. These medicines are presented disease wise. This type of traditional knowledge is a wealth for the human being and has great value in the context of today's Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs) scenario. |
