Objectif Sea Buckthorn is native to Europe and Asia and has been known and used by humans for centuries. The major benefits of the plant lie in - the richness of bio-active compounds (vitamins, minerals/micro elements, high valuable oils and secondary plant constituents), - its potential for pharmaceutical applications documented in Russian and traditional Chinese medicine, - the chance for additional income in remote rural areas (e.g. Asia, Russia), which would help to combat the migration into the cities and the encountered socio-economic problems. However, commercial cultivation and exploitation is not well-developed in Eastern Europe and Asia due to a lack of know-how in harvesting and processing technologies and market-oriented product development. In Europe the availability of raw material is restricted: Approx. 5.000 tons of berries are processed annually which can not satisfy the existing and future market for high quality foods, cosmetics and pharmaceutical products. [NIG, 2001/2004] Therefore EAN-SEABUCK aims at the establishment of an integral cooperation network between Europe and Asia for a joint sustainable utilisation of Sea Buckthorn. By these means a win-win situation for Europe and Asia will be achieved by mobilising the scientific and technological capacities of the European Union to the benefit of the international community. Furthermore, in the developing Sea Buckthorn market, which has an enormous economic potential due to the highly valuable plant compounds, the imminent strong competition from third countries such as the US would be pre-empted.
