| Abstract: | Indigenous people have evolved Traditional Knowledge,
which are ecologically sound low cost sustainable technologies to deal with
issues related to various agro-eco-systems. Growing commercialization and
industrialization over the last two decades has eroded this commitment
adversely affecting the quality of care in the context of the global change.
Common characteristics of traditional knowledge, key facts and figures of
traditional wisdom, successful
examples of traditional knowledge for soil
and water conservation, food and
medicines, insect pests management, and future
of traditional knowledge in the global scenario are discussed. |
