Wild edible plants constitute an essential component of biodiversity and play a significant role in supporting food security, nutrition, and traditional healthcare systems in rural areas. The present study was carried out along the Akot–Wadner Gangai roadside region in Maharashtra, India, to document the diversity and distribution of wild edible plant species. Field surveys were conducted across different seasons to record plant species and assess their availability patterns. A total of 15 wild edible plant species belonging to diverse families were identified. The study revealed that roadside ecosystems act as important reservoirs of plant biodiversity, particularly during the monsoon season when species richness was highest. The findings highlight the ecological, nutritional, and socio-economic importance of wild edible plants and emphasize the need for their conservation and sustainable utilization.
