Enhancing the essential oil yield of clonal blue mallee plantations

生产高品质的桉树油在维多利亚州涉及可持续收获树叶从公共土地。维多利亚州政府最近对土地使用情况进行了审查，要求在未来几年内，石油生产商将其采收作业转移到私人土地上的种植园。该项目将通过开发桉树种植园（蓝马利桉树）的方法来帮助生产者，桉树油的产量非常高，经济上可行。这项研究将有助于恢复维多利亚州作为高品质桉树油主要生产商之一的地位。

Production of high quality eucalyptus oil in Victoria involves sustainable harvesting of foliage from public land. A recent review of land use by the Victorian Government has required that, over the next few years, oil producers move their harvesting operations into plantations on private land. This project will assist producers by developing methods for establishing plantations of eucalypts (blue mallee) with very high and economically viable yields of eucalyptus oil. This research will help restore Victoria's position as one of the major producers of high quality eucalyptus oil.
