Peluang pengembangan artemisia di Indonesia cukup besar. Beberapa wilayah memiliki lingkungan tumbuh yang sesuai bagi pertumbuhan artemisia dan klon lambat berbunga yang cocok tumbuh di Indonesia juga tersedia. Beberapa hal yang perlu diperhatikan dalam budidaya artemisia di Indonesia agar produksi dan kadar artemisininnya tinggi antara lain: (1) pemilihan lokasi atau wilayah yang sesuai, (2) pemilihan bahan tanaman yang tepat,, dan (3) memanipulasi agronomik seperti  pemangkasan,  pemupukan  anorganik  dan organik, naungan, dan mikroba.Kata kunci: Artemisia annua L., budidaya, artemisinin, pengembangan. ABSTRACTPotency of Artemisia annua Development in IndonesiaArtemisia as medicinal plant was proven can cure malaria disease more effective than quinine pill.
