Appropriate time for collecting seeds from
the Himalaya region is considered to be between October 15 and November 15. However,
due to the delay in granting permission by Ministry of Forest and Soil
Conservation (MoFSC) to National Academy of Science and Technology (NAST), many
rare/ endangered plant species are now on the verge of extinction. This lack of
coordination will only make it possible to collect 20 percent of the seeds from
10,781 samples of seeds from 90 species of agricultural plants in Nepal.
