OUR HERBAL KINGDOM
A Greener Tomorrow
Medicinal plants are a vital source of medicine for humanity, and it's concerning that many of them are on the verge extinction. The World Health Organization reports that nearly 80% of people in developing countries rely on traditional plant-based medicine. Globally, around 40,000-50,000 plant species are used for medicinal purposes while in India, about 700 plant species are used in Ayurveda and Unani preparations.
At Apari, we recognize the importance of preserving biodiversity and have taken initiatives to involve communities and tribes across the country. As the's largest Ayurvedic products manufacturing company, we're committed to ecological management and addressing environmental issues.
We are committed to preserving biodiversity and protecting rare medicinal herbs from extinction as part of our Environment Sustainability strategy. Our program identifies environmentally sensitive species of medicinal plants and herbs and develops sustainable cultivation methodologies. We partner with local NGOs and provide training programs for farmers, villagers, and tribal communities across the country to promote and environment-friendly cultivation practices.
We have also established a fully automated state-of-the-art greenhouse in Pantnagar (Uttarakhand) and another in Banepa (Nepal), in addition to 26 satellite nurseries and several demo cultivation sites across the country. These greenhouses are dedicated exclusively for growing and nurturing medicinal plant saplings. The facility supplies elite planting material to farmers across the country, free of cost. This process enables farmers to cultivate and supply well-standardized medicinal plants on a large scale.
We engage marginal farmers, providing them visible economic opportunities while helping conserve natural resources in the wide ranging ecosystems.
