Khat.world Maps a Plant Through Names, Laws and Evidence
An evidence-first reference guide to Catha edulis, covering 120 cultivar and local-name records, country legality, Kenyan market grades, Jaba products and research.
Field notes
The guide separates botanical identity from market language, distinguishing cultivar, accession, ecotype and grade rather than treating every local name as the same category. Its research section ties six digitized morphological traits and five SSR markers to 30 Kenyan accessions, while the legal section organizes records by country and by acts such as possession, sale, cultivation and cross-border movement. The homepage also flags source coverage and keeps unknowns visible.
