'HIBISCUS ESCULENTUS' : DEVELOPMENT OF AN INTEGRATED EXPLOITATION SYSTEM WITH HIGH ADDED VALUE'

Objective



The project aims to prove the possibility and feasibility of Hibiscus esculentus in the European agriculture. This environment friendly crop, which has multiple by-products, can be cultivated on a free chemical based system. Experimental cultivations will be realized in order to search the quantitative and qualitative characters of derived products.
The deliverables will be:

(1) Research on optimisation of primary production and agricultural aspects of the crop;
(2) Fresh pods for chemical analysis;
(3) Seeds for chemical analysis and chemical industrial use;
(4) Fibres for laboratory analysis with specification of their properties in the papermaking and fiber reinforcing processings;
(5) Socio-macro and micro-economical aspects of the cultivation in different countries.
A mini pilot plan will be set up in order to determine the potential processings and uses of the products.
