Synopsis

The idea of the book came from the crisis in British farming that suddenly demanded that farmers diversify in ways that were both sustainable and ecologically sound. The book starts by providing an enthralling history of essential oils through the ages - from the Pharoahs to the present day. It then shows farmers and budding essential oil producers exactly how they can benefit today from clear, practical advice available nowhere else. What equipment to use? What is the expected outlay? What essential oils can be distilled and what products can then be made from them? What are the expected profits? All these questions and much, much more are addressed in an easy to read, light-hearted format. From armchair enthusiasts to inquisitive farmers, Bruce Dolby's book offers a delightfully amusing read as well as the knowledge to get started.

Biographie de l'auteur

Bruce Dolby is a chartered chemist and was involved for many years in the production and distillation of essential oils for the perfumery and flavours industries. He has worked extensively on both the research and development of these oils, before moving on to gain valuable experience in the veterinary and agricultural sector. Bruce formed his own company in the early 1980's, manufacturing a wide range of small-scale farming products and dairy equipment. To assist farmers with diversification, he then turned his attention to designing and producing specialist equipment for essential oil distillation on the farm. He has commissioned stills in the UK and Ireland and more recently in Africa where, in conjunction with an educational charity, he has become involved in starting up fair trade in essential oils. Bruce is married with three children and lives in Kent with his wife Margaret.
