Organic Pyrethrum Farming: Natural Insecticide for Sustainable Agriculture

Organic Pyrethrum
Organic pyrethrum is one of the most powerful natural insecticides used in sustainable agriculture. Extracted from the dried flowers of Chrysanthemum cinerariifolium, pyrethrum contains natural compounds called pyrethrins that effectively control a wide range of harmful insects without causing long-term soil or environmental damage. Unlike synthetic pesticides, organic pyrethrum breaks down quickly in sunlight, making it safer for farmers, consumers, and beneficial insects when used correctly.
Organic pyrethrum farming is gaining popularity in India, especially in cooler regions like Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Mirpur, Gilgat, Baltistan, Murre, Swat valley and Uttarakhand. 

The crop thrives in well-drained loamy soil with moderate rainfall and cool temperatures. It is a perennial plant that starts flowering within 4–5 months after planting and can continue producing flowers for several years. The dried flower heads are harvested and processed into powder or extract for natural pest control products.

One of the biggest advantages of organic pyrethrum cultivation is its high market demand. It is widely used in organic vegetable farming, fruit orchards, greenhouse production, and even in household mosquito sprays. With increasing restrictions on chemical pesticides, the demand for botanical insecticides is rising rapidly in both domestic and export markets.

Farmers can increase profitability by focusing on organic certification, proper drying techniques, and value addition through powder or liquid extract processing. Intercropping with medicinal plants or vegetables can further enhance income. With relatively low maintenance and strong global demand, organic pyrethrum offers an excellent opportunity for small and medium farmers looking to shift toward eco-friendly and high-value agriculture.

Salvia miltiorrhiza – Primary Commercial Source of Salvianolic Acid Worldwide

Salvia miltiorrhiza, commonly known as Danshen or Red Sage, is the world’s primary commercial source of salvianolic acids—especially salvianolic acid A and salvianolic acid B, two of the most powerful natural antioxidant compounds found in medicinal plants.

Native to China and  cultivated in Kashmir, this perennial herb belongs to the Lamiaceae (mint) family. The roots of Salvia miltiorrhiza are the main medicinal part and contain high concentrations of salvianolic acids, along with rosmarinic acid and tanshinones. These compounds are extensively used in modern herbal medicine and pharmaceutical research.

Salvianolic acids extracted from Salvia miltiorrhiza are valued for their cardiovascular protective properties, including improving blood circulation, preventing blood clot formation, and reducing oxidative stress. They are also studied for neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, anti-fibrotic, and anti-cancer potential, making them important in global herbal and drug research.

Due to its high concentration of  bioactive compounds, strong international demand, and established extraction industry, Salvia miltiorrhiza is recognized as the primary commercial plant source of salvianolic acid worldwide. It is cultivated on a large scale in China and is gaining attention in other temperate regions for high-value medicinal farming and export markets.

For the last 15 years, our organization has been working on this plant with great dedication. In 2006, we collected 3000 kilograms of its roots and in 2008, 4200  kilograms. We have started its plantation again from 2026. It is hoped that in 2028, we will be able to collect its roots for the third time.

We have planting material. For more information, you can contact us.

Ginkgo Biloba to Improve Blood Flow in Legs and Feet

Poor circulation in the legs and feet can cause coldness, numbness, tingling, cramps, and fatigue. Many people experience these symptoms due to long sitting hours, aging, diabetes, or vascular issues. Fortunately, nature offers a powerful herbal ally — Ginkgo biloba, one of the oldest medicinal plants in the world.

Ginkgo biloba is widely known for its ability to enhance blood circulation. It works by improving blood vessel flexibility and promoting better oxygen and nutrient delivery to the extremities. This increased circulation can help reduce numbness, cold feet, and discomfort in the legs, making daily movement easier and more comfortable. The herb also contains strong antioxidants that protect blood vessels from damage and support overall cardiovascular health.

Traditionally used in herbal medicine for centuries, Ginkgo biloba is now popular in teas, capsules, and natural supplements. Regular and moderate use may help people suffering from poor peripheral circulation, especially those who experience leg fatigue or tingling sensations.

While Ginkgo biloba is not a magical cure, it is a natural and gentle option that can support healthier blood flow when combined with proper diet, hydration, and exercise. Always consult a healthcare professional before starting any herbal supplement, especially if you are on medication.

The creator of the universe has created thousands and thousands of resources and things for the good and improvement of man in the world. It is impossible to count them, so it is not enough for us to mention their features and benefits. The dark substance that magically emerges from the mountains is Shilajit.

What is Shilajit ?
Silajit or Shilajit is a black colored mineral with a strong smell and a bitter taste that comes out of very high mountains. It comes out of mountain crevices and freezes. After coming out, it gets mixed with stone fragments and mud etc. From there, the scrap is brought into the houses and later cleaned and made edible in various ways. Since ancient times in Gilgit-Baltistan, Shilajit has been used for diseases and weakness. Along with many properties and benefits, Shilajit is a special gift from nature and for this Shilajit is also called the sweat of the mountains. Nowadays, Shilajit capsules, tablets and powders are available in the market, but only a small amount of Silageet is used. Therefore, it is better to buy and use Shilajit in clean condition. Shilajit is becoming more expensive and rare day by day. The reason for this is the treatment of natural resources like all other natural resources by human beings and the cessation of its production due to climate change on the planet.

Shilajit Brands ? 
A brand is a label provided by the government. But what is the guarantee that the shilajit in it is genuine? The price of genuine shilajit is about 160,000 per kg, while branded shilajit is available for 60,000 per kg, which is strong evidence that it is fake. Shilajit collected from an altitude of 7-8 thousand feet in Gilgit-Baltistan of Pakistan, Hindu Kush of Afghanistan and Kashmir is 131,000 per kg in Kashmir, while the price of shilajit from Nepal and Uttarakhand is 15,000 per kg.

And especially where glaciers are found and there is snow year round. It emerges miraculously from the crevices and cliffs of the high mountains of these regions. It is not yet known what it is made of, but it is rich in sweat from the mountains. One impression is that there are hot springs and sulfur. The smell is also there, it is usually found in the surrounding area. In Gilgit-Baltistan, the people who go to graze cattle on the mountains or those who are keen hunters, bring the silage to the market. And it is not possible for ordinary people to have access to raw Silajit because it requires the art of climbing dangerous and deadly mountains and special knowledge of places where Shilajit is found.

Advantages of Shilajit:
There is a general impression that Shilajit is only a remedy for male or female sexual impotence, but according to modern science and research, Salajit has amazing, magical properties and benefits which include the following.
