According to a report by the News Network of Medicinal plants Education, considering the Minister of Agriculture Jihad’s communication, ‘Medicinal Plants National Plan’ started its work as an independent center with the management of Dr. Peyman Yousefi Azar in September of 2016.

Since the medicinal plants industry is in the form of a chain of activities and processes, we must consider each link as unique. This chain consists of several links such as producing input, plant, preparing crops, storage, transportation, primary and secondary production as well as domestic and foreign markets.

A glance at the medicinal plants condition in the country at the moment, and you will see that there are serious problems and shortages in all the links, that not only do they cause inefficiency and ineffectiveness, but they also impact other links of the chain.

Therefore, it is requested of the pundits and those active in the field of medicinal plants, to provide this center with their plans, ideas and projects to develop all relevant businesses in cyberspace such as activities regarding selling, marketing, technical counseling, providing information and transference of knowledge, etc…having received them, this office will choose the best ideas and plans for further necessary cooperation and support in order to help set up and implement them.
