Lavender & Dairy: Innovation with Natural Added Value<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

However, the economic viability of lavender cultivation is under threat, as the market prices of lavender oil are declining, making the activity barely profitable\u2014or even loss-making\u2014for producers.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
