The essential oil industry is under threat from numerous issues at present. Rising agricultural input costs, particularly petrochemical based fertilizers and fuels are squeezing farmers’ profit margins. Rising food prices and the increasing value of housing and industrial land prices is creating competition for land, particularly around populated areas. Adverse weather conditions and changing climate are creating both short and long term problems. Poor crop yields are occurring much more regularly than before because of unusually heavy rain, hail, floods, heat-waves and cold snaps | Agriculture Issues and Policies Series ESSENTIAL Oils Murray Hunter Art Agriculture Science Industry and Entrepreneurship A Focus on the Asia-Pacific Region Agriculture Issues and Policies Series Essential Oils Art Agriculture Science Industry and Entrepreneurship A Focus on the Asia-Pacific region No part of this digital document may be reproduced stored in a retrieval system or transmitted in any form or by any means.
