Abstract

The supply of Chinese herbal medicine has evolved from wild to mainly cultivation-oriented. In order to ensure sufficient supply and reliable quality, it is very important to carry out Good Agricultural Practice (GAP) of medicinal plants. This article summarises the market status of Kampo medicines in Japan, the general status of cultivation of medicinal plants in Japan, the main content of technical guidelines on cultivation of medicinal plants in Japan, and Japan Good Agricultural Practices (J-GAP). The content offers some references for other countries to bring GAP into practice.
