The method of cultivation of Rheum Undulatum L. seeds in the steppe Lands of Mongolia / Монголын эм зүй, эм судлал

ABSTRACT

Abstract@#Nowadays on par with the development of Western medicine, such issues as preserving veg- etation and ecological balance, supporting the expansion of the National Pharmaceutical Industry and “National Policy for the Development of Mongolian Traditional Medicine” are being actively discussed in Mongolia. Also, worldwide, the trend of using herbal medicine is growing².</br> Due to the continuous drought for many years, the desertification process in most parts of Mongolia was very intense, and as a result rare endangered plants are on the verge of extinction ^{3, 4, 6}. Therefore, there is the need to determine the amount of reserve, rationalize the use of medicinal plant, acclimate rare herbal plants, and create medicine from raw materials.<br> To resolve this matter, we prepared a methodological recommendation for the cultivation of <i>Rheum undulatum L.</i> With this method, it is possible to plant this kind of seed in the steppes of Mongolia and to use the medicinal raw materials from the roots of a 3-year-old plant.
