Fig. 3 Directions, not capacity

Up to 500 ha of irrigated land,
under a preliminary agreement.

Six directions from the plant’s own development document. None is delivered capacity. Where the document gives a rouble figure, it is the document’s own estimate and carries the chip:

ESTIMATE
  • DirectionBio-rational pesticide
    Manufacture and sale of the insecto-acaricidal composition for agriculture, horticulture and viticulture, which raises demand for coriander essential oil, the plant’s main product. Forestry programmes would load the plant’s capacity in full.
  • DirectionEssential-oil crops
    Growing them, and distilling oil from fresh-cut herbage in the off-season. A preliminary agreement with a landowner for up to 500 ha of irrigated land.
  • DirectionBottled water
    Drinking water with fennel and dill hydrolates. The groundwater licence allows up to 500 m³ of drinking water; the period is not stated in the source. Estimated cost 2 RUB/l; estimated selling price 10 RUB/l.ESTIMATE
  • DirectionHydrolates
    Fennel and dill hydrolates — “dill water” — up to 200,000 l/year. Estimated cost 10 RUB/l; estimated selling price 100 RUB/l.ESTIMATE
  • DirectionCoriander meal
    The de-oiled meal left after distillation, with raised moisture. Drying and granulation would allow full processing, long storage and transport, and raise the selling price at least ×2. Interest from beef and dairy cattle farms.
  • DirectionSpices
    For the food industry.
