Justification of Studies

According to Tabuti et al. (2003) and others, systematic studies on EVM can be justified for three main reasons:

  1. they can generate useful information needed to develop livestock healing practices and methods that are suited to the local environment,
  2. EVM could be a key veterinary resource and could add useful new drugs to the pharmacopoeia, and
  3. EVM can contribute to biodiversity conservation.

Besides, the overlap between natural resources traditionally used as medicines for both humans and animals may be indicative of the efficacy of these remedies

Famous quotes containing the word studies:

    The best laws cannot make a constitution work in spite of morals; morals can turn the worst laws to advantage. That is a commonplace truth, but one to which my studies are always bringing me back. It is the central point in my conception. I see it at the end of all my reflections.
    Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)
