Regarding Ngoc Linh ginseng, this is a folk knowledge with unique historical and cultural values associated with slash-and-burn agriculture and forest economy.

Besides exploitation, from very early on, many residents around Ngoc Linh range in Nam Tra My district knew how to grow and care for this medicinal plant in nature with simple methods for use when needed.
The access, propagation, cultivation and processing of Ngoc Linh ginseng bring very high economic value, showing the change and development of production practices from exploitation and gathering to concentrated production and intensive investment, thanks to which a part of the people of Nam Tra My district have escaped poverty sustainably. Through the process of practicing the heritage, the local community has gained many valuable experiences to form a fairly complete folk knowledge system about Ngoc Linh ginseng.
The folk knowledge of exploiting, growing and processing Ngoc Linh ginseng of ethnic minorities in Nam Tra My district can be considered a valuable treasure, both of cultural value and of great significance for socio-economic development.
Besides the potentials that ginseng brings, the preservation and promotion of traditional professional knowledge in exploiting, planting and processing Ngoc Linh ginseng also needs to be preserved and maintained.
