<span class="xn-chron">Jan. 10, 2014</span> /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- <a href="http://www.unitedplantsavers.org/" target="_blank">United Plant Savers</a> is a non-profit organization dedicated to the conservation of medicinal plants native to
<span class="xn-location"><span style="mso-fareast-font-family:Calibri">the United States</span></span> and
<span class="xn-location"><span style="mso-fareast-font-family:Calibri">Canada</span></span>. As advocates for the dwindling populations of wild American Ginseng, United Plant Savers is expressing concern to the History Channel and its viewers over how the
harvest of wild American Ginseng is being portrayed in the recent series 'Appalachian Outlaws'. This concern stems from the potential over-glorification of American Ginseng harvest in the wake of increasing levels of illegal harvest on state and federal lands,
which has recently gained <a href="http://www.cbsnews.com/news/ginseng-poaching-threatens-survival-of-plant-species/" target="_blank">
national media attention</a> and is threatening the survival of the species in the wild.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">"United Plant Savers is concerned that the content of this show will have a negative impact on American Ginseng conservation and could lead to further illegal harvesting," states Executive
Director, <span class="xn-person">Susan Leopold</span>.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">With the intention of reducing pressures on wild populations of
<a href="http://www.unitedplantsavers.org/content.php/326-Species-at-Risk-American-Ginseng" target="_blank">
American Ginseng</a> and other threatened medicinal plants, United Plant Savers has identified and published
<a href="http://www.unitedplantsavers.org/content.php/161-species-at-risk_1" target="_blank">
'At-Risk' and 'To-Watch' lists</a> of key species in decline due to a variety of factors including over-harvesting. American Ginseng is listed in Appendix II of the
<a href="http://www.cites.org/" target="_blank">CITES Treaty</a> and United Plant Savers is reminding the public about federal regulations,
<a href="http://www.fws.gov/international/permits/by-species/american-ginseng.html" target="_blank">
laws and recent restrictions</a> surrounding the harvest and sale of the species, and good stewardship harvesting practices such as those published by the
<a href="http://www.ahpa.org/default.aspx?tabid=154" target="_blank">American Herbal Products Association</a> in collaboration with United Plant Savers and US Fish and Wildlife.
<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">The future viability of wild populations of American Ginseng is questionable in light of the species' slow growth rate and complex reproductive strategy, loss of habitat, and increased
illegal harvesting on state and federal lands in response to rising international demand and economic incentive. United Plant Savers has recently launched a national
<a href="http://www.change.org/petitions/save-american-ginseng-panax-quinquefolius" target="_blank">
petition</a> to encourage state and federal agencies to continue to fund initiatives specifically aimed at the conservation of American Ginseng and to facilitate educational programs for private landowners on how to grow American Ginseng as a non-timber forest
product. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">United Plant Savers acknowledges the cultural heritage and historical role that American Ginseng has played in the Appalachian region and encourages those that are interested in the harvesting
of American Ginseng to educate themselves about conservation issues and regulations on the species.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

as black cohosh was a minor one, compared to the digging of ginseng with clusters of green berries, digging two prong plants and the unscrupulous dealers. The so called “disabled” poacher claiming to be supporting his family with ginseng should go to jail
for fraud if he is indeed “disabled” and collecting benefits. Disabled people cannot hunt ginseng.
