Despite the fact that the traditional wisdom about herbal healers was always available to man, the modern science has started taking it seriously only recently even, though a phenomenal growth has taken place in the field of medicinal science since the days of Renaissancde curiously enough, for at least 200 years, serious scientific or pharmacological examination of plant derivatives based on medico botanicals leads was not taken up at the scale at which it should have been taken up by the scientists across the globe. It was only during the later part of the 20th century that the potential of herbal medicine and the real value of the traditional wisdom were appreciated by the world. This delayed response of human civilization to a very obvious area of scientific research were traditional wisdom and mordern technique could join hands to explore the nature for its treasure of medicines is rather inexplicable. The wealth of traditional knowledge about Medico-botany or plant - based medicine was always sufficient to bring in focus the concept of conseruing biodiversity. The phenomenal acceptance of herbal treatments and herbal product promises to the bridge the gap between the traditional plant based medicines and mordernmedicine systems.Medico botanicla survey of certain Grass species was under taken to collect Information from rural and local people of Jambudiavidi and their surrounding.
