Biodiversity for Food and Nutrition: Edible Wild Plant Species of Aegean Region of Turkey

Abstract

In Turkey wild edible plants have been used in dietary as a source of food from prehistoric times onwards. The wild plants are common in Turkish cuisine and they are eaten raw, consumed after cooking, dried before use, consumed after processing. However they have different uses in different areas of the country. Wild edible plants have been widely consumed in Aegean region where the traditional foods are still cooked and even served at the local restaurants.   The study was developed on the edible wild plants in Aegean Region of Turkey as a multi-disciplinary approach to gather data on the traditional uses of wild edibles; to improve the conservation and use of agricultural biodiversity for food and nutrition, as well as to build support for biodiversity conservation and enhanced well-being by providing evidence and raising awareness of the nutritional value of this diversity and its importance in food-based approaches to tackle unhealthy dietary. Eleven species of wild edible plants of Aegean Region have been prioritized in this study. Surveys were conducted in Izmir, Aydın, Muğla and Balıkesir to determine the baseline status of community biodiversity for food and nutrition, dietary diversity and traditional knowledge. The previous studies conducted on edible plants were the baseline of the survey. The ethno-botanic and socio-economic surveys were conducted at the selected ecological sites in the villages, local markets, local restaurants as well as supermarkets. The socio-economic studies were conducted for detail data with monographic technic. Surveys were carried out to generate the idea on marketing opportunity, to assist to obtain the information for the development of policy to upload the relevant information about the traditional knowledge. During surveys ethno-botanical information and the different type of dishes of wild edible plants were recorded. The data recorded from face to face questioners with 541 collector and 584 consumers for the conclusion of process from harvest to consumption.  In the Aegean region, the majority of consumers stated that they consumed wild species 1-2 times a week. The collected amount varies according to the type of market. Some species are usually collected for commercial purposes. Samples were also collected for taxonomic identification and for further study on nutritional value priority species. Awareness activities have been conducted, leaflets, brochures were prepared and disseminated. Over 100 species of wild edible plants and over have been recorded from the study region.
