摘要

Sea buckthorn (Hippophae Spp. L.) is a deciduous and multipurpose species of fragile high mountains belonging to the family Elaeagnaceae. It has attracted attention world over due to its multipurpose values. Since, the Himalayas suffer from a high level of land degradation, desertification and soil erosion and show distinct signs of un-sustainability, decreasing soil fertility and a high degree of instability. It’s genetic characters such as wide ecological adaptation, fast growth, strong coppicing and suckering habit coupled with efficient nitrogen fixation makes this plant well suited in soil and water conservation, soil improvement and marginal lands reclamation. The abundant naturally growing Sea buckthorn ecotypes are of diverse genetic makeup with diverse biochemical and nutritional expressions. Fruit of Sea buckthorn is a storehouse of different Vitamins and important bioactive substances. The sustainable management of these traditionally used plants not only helps to conserve nationally and globally important biodiversity but also provide critical resources to sustain livelihoods with nutritional security. But, due to the lack of proper scientific study this plant remain underutilized and had gain little attention by scientific researchers and local community. This paper aims to explore the economic and ecological hidden potentials of sea buckthorn that exactly benefits rural Himalayan ensuring nutritional security and biodiversity conservation. Further, the paper disseminates the case study findings of women cooperative involved in sea buckthorn production and processing in Mustang district of Nepal. Apart from exploring the benefits and creating awareness about sea buckthorn, this paper provides best suggestions.
