Research, valorization and exploitation of biological resources for medicinal purposes in the Malagasy Republic (Madagascar).
Medicinal plants are widely used for treatment of diseases in Madagascar (the Malagasy Republic). Different types of users, including individuals, researchers, groups of researchers and State institutions use medicinal plants as crude materials either for trade, scientific investigations or export. To preserve these forest products for extended use, Malagasy legislation controls the collection of medicinal plants, especially those destined for export. However, according to the law, products coming from Malagasy medicinal plants are not patentable locally.
