Central Institute of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants,
popularly known as CIMAP, is a frontier plant research laboratory of Council of
Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR). Established originally as Central
Indian Medicinal Plants Organisation (CIMPO) in 1959, CIMAP is steering
multidisciplinary high quality research in biological and chemical sciences and
extending technologies and services to the farmers and entrepreneurs of
medicinal and aromatic plants (MAPs) with its research headquarter at Lucknow
and Research Centres at Bangalore, Hyderabad, Pantnagar and Purara. CIMAP
Research Centres are aptly situated in different agro-climatic zones of the
country to facilitate multi-location field trials and research. A little more
than 50 years since its inception, today, CIMAP has extended its wings overseas
with scientific collaboration agreements with Malaysia. CSIR-CIMAP has signed
two agreements to promote bilateral cooperation between India and Malaysia in
research, development and commercialization of MAP related technologies.
