The lavender planted as an alternative crop in Güneysınır with the support of Konya Metropolitan Municipality has started to be harvested.
Konya Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Uğur İbrahim Altay stated that they continue to provide agricultural support to increase the income of citizens living in rural areas and that they carry out these efforts meticulously.
Mayor Altay recalled that the harvest of the lavender, which will be turned into lavender oil, lasts about a month, saying, "We market the products obtained from the distillation facility we established in Güneysınır under the Lavonya brand. In this way, we also provide financial support to our cooperative."
Providing information about the work at the Güneysınır Medicinal and Aromatic Plants Distillation Center, Güneysınır Agricultural Development Cooperative President Mustafa Kurşun said, "I would like to thank those who contributed to this project, our Konya Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Uğur İbrahim Altay, his team, our Güneysınır Municipality, and our hardworking farmers."
