HERBAL FARM

The Department of Pharmacognosy is maintaining an area of about 1 acre of unique herbal garden having nearly 150 species of various medicinal herbs in our campus.

The demo herbal garden is useful in teaching the students how to
  • Authenticate
  • Cultivate and Preserve medicinal herbs
We are utilizing these herbs for academic and research purposes.

We have released a CD ROM on "A Compendium of Medicinal Plants" jointly with the Department of Biotechnology, PMCTW, Vallam. The software contains a detailed note on each species that are grown in the Periyar Herbal Farm. It is very helpful to academicians, research scholars and drug manufacturers.
