For hundreds of centuries, humans have been trying to get rid of vital problems such as nutrition. They were always fighting for the provision of clothes for the continuation of life and especially for the treatment of health diseases that afflicted them. One of the most important ways of their struggle against all the problems of life, especially deadly diseases, was to turn to plants, especially medical and medicinal plants. The Chinese and Japanese believe that their medical information based on herbal medicine existed hundreds of centuries ago, and the historical documents available to them show that three thousand years before Christ, large gardens and farms were built in that country to cultivate medicinal plants. However, every year, hundreds of hectares of agricultural land in Western and American countries are allocated for the cultivation of medicinal plants, so that in the year (1998) AD, 65,000 hectares of agricultural land in America were allocated only for the cultivation of mint. This indicates the value and position of medicinal and medicinal plants in human life. It is mentionable that plants, in addition to their medical and medicinal values, were also used as a suitable source of food for humans in ancient times, and humans benefit significantly from the existence of plants on the earth. Badakhshan Province of Afghanistan, with its special geographical area such as high mountains and useful water resources, has been a suitable environment for the growth and development of all kinds of plants, especially medical and medicinal plants. This subject has encouraged researchers to research and work for knowing these valuable plants. Key words: Medicinal plants, value of medicinal plants, usages, protection methods, medicinal plant in Badakhshan.
