Abstract
Relevance of the study is driven by the need to enhance the socio-economic potential of Ukraine's depressed regions through the involvement of local populations in the wild medicinal plant harvesting sector. The aim of the article is to comprehensively examine this activity as a factor of sustainable local development. The methodology is based on the analysis of statistical data, regulatory frameworks, and institutional practices. The results demonstrate a positive impact on employment, household income, and social inclusion. Scientific novelty lies in the integrated assessment of efficiency factors in the wild-plant sector. Conclusions confirm the importance of supporting certification, cooperation, and local infrastructure. Research prospects include the integration of harvesting into regional recovery strategies.
