Abstract: While peoples are living in their respective environments, their decisions and actions are mediated by culturally constructed values, beliefs and priorities. A common tool to quantify otherwise qualitative data in the biological and social sciences is the most important step towards for protection, conservation and benefiting of plant species diversity for different purposes for which qualitative and quantitative method of data collection mechanisms should be identified and used. These approaches could provide data amenable to hypothesis-testing, statistical validation and comparative analysis. Qualitative study of people-plants’ relationship can show how different ethnic groups living within the same geographic landscape interact with the environmental resources.
