Abstract
In This paper we present Ethnomedicinal Survey of Indigenous Flora among some rural Communities of District ANANTNAG JAMMU and KASHMIR. The medicinal properties of plant species have made an outstanding contribution in the origin and evolution of many traditional herbal therapies. Keeping this thing in view, an ethno medicinal survey was carried out to study traditionally used plants by the rural communities of District ANANTNAG JAMMU and KASHMIR. An ethnobotanical survey was conducted in the field during 2016–2018. Ethnobotanical data were gathered from 182 informants through oral interviews and semi-structured questionnaires. The distribution of plants was explored using both descriptive and graphical methods. Further, a Multinomial Logit Specification was applied to find out the probability of the occurrence of diverse utilization of plants in multipurpose domains.
