Abstract

The adaptive nature of medicinal plants to their environment is often seen due to their general occurrence. If we consider some wildflower species, they are exceptionally site-specific along with their nature of growth in different soil types and concentrations, so the patchiness of these medicinal plants is often reported in the arable fields. In general occurrence and pattern of space of a medicinal plant is the result of various abiotic factors of the environment among which are soil pH, Bulk density, infiltration rate, and most importantly the nutrient content such as calcium, phosphorous, magnesium, aluminum, iron, etc. which determines the soil type and the rate of growth of vegetation in it. The soil type is important as it determines the water holding capacity of soil which helps the plants to withstand harsh environmental conditions. Thus, the nature of soil affects the growth of medicinal plants in a complex way, while considering it into an account. Thus, it is necessary to identify and quantify the nature of soil required for the growth of medicinal plants luxuriantly, this would in the future help to the cultivation of medicinal plants on a large scale particularly the medicinal plants which has not gained much importance in the past are part of ignorance for human but are very important such as Ipomoea cairica. The current research paper transacts with the purpose of determining how different soil types could affect the nature and growth of medicinal plants i.e., Ipomoea cairica, which is being undomesticated in nature. The research work consists of testing different types of minerals present in both the soil types as well as the pH, Bulk density, Infiltration rate, etc as the determining factor for the growth of a wild Medicinal plant.
