Aromatic Plant contract Cultivation -Lemon citronella oil,Rosemary oil,Davana oil,Lemon grass oil,Basil Oil,Mint oil- india scope having at tamil nadu



Agriculture and Industry have been conventionally viewed as separate sectors in respect of their characteristics and their role in economic growth.


India is predominantly an Agriculture economy and food production accounts for 26% of India's GDP .


Agriculture accounts for more than 60% of employment.


Agriculture has been growing at 3.3% compared to Industry's 7.5% a year.



India stands second in Fruit production after Brazil and also second in vegetables production after China.



Thirty three million tonnes of fruits and 70 million tonnes of vegetables are produced in India with a global market share of 11% and 17.5% respectively.



The fruits and vegetables are processed to an extent of 1 to 2% in India, compared to 70 to 80% by the developed countries.



The Government of India is offering many incentives for the food processing industries treating it as a thrust area.




2. 79% of rural population contribute to the development of Agriculture.


The urbanization process has resulted in migration of rural people to the urban areas for non-farming activities.



Tamil Nadu is the second most urbanised State next to Maharashtra.



The inequilibrium between the industrial and agricultural wages causes unrest and frustration which manifests in the form of societal violences. The expanded urban markets require agriculture products especially fruits and vegetables in a fresh or in a processed form.




3. Tamil Nadu with its different agro climatic regions is historically well suited to produce different varieties of fruits and vegetables in large quantities.




Around 5.5 million tonnes of fruits and 5.7 million tonnes of vegetables are grown in 4 lakh hectares in Tamil Nadu.




However, due to inadequate linkages with markets, fruits and vegetables produced in abundance during seasons do not realise the value for the farmers.



There are a large number of intermediaries who deny value to both farmers and consumers. Inadequate linkages also lead to loss of large quantities of fruits and vegetables.


Fragmented land holdings, lack of capital, poor infrastructure, inadequate information dissemination are the main constraints which can be overcome by a cohesive system with strong linkages among research, infrastructure, private sector and the farming community through contract farming system for the production and marketing of fruits and vegetables in the State.




Industries engaged in Food processing have been very keen to undertake large scale Horticulture crop production either through their own farms or leased land.

CITRONLEAA OIL-INDIA,WHOLESALES ,RETAIL AND MANUFACTURING PRICE


















Citronella oil is one of the industrially important essential oils obtained from different species of Cymbopogon.



The oil is widely used in perfumery, soaps, detergents, industrial polishes, cleaning compounds and other industrial products.



Citronella Oil is classified in trade into two types: Ceylon citronella oil which is extracted from Cymbopogon nardus .

The main difference between these oils is the proportion of geraniol and citronellal.




The high proportion of geraniol andcitronellal in Java type oil makes it an important source of various derivatives like citronelloland hydroxycitronellal, which are extensively, used in compounding high grade perfumes.





Citronella oil can be extracted from the leaves of the plant by steam or water distillation.
The demand for citronella oil has been affected by synthetic isolates produced from turpentine oil and the oil from Eucalyptus citriodora.




There is still a widespread preference for citronella oil because of its unique olfactory and stable technical properties, which are vital in blending perfumes and compounding industrially important essences.
