agro-climatic conditions of South Indian hills.

fragrance companies.

Germany, the United Kingdom, other European countries, and Japan. France
is a major reexporter of geranium oil, often further distilled and
reblended there to client specifications. Various industry suppliers
estimate world demand at around 250 tons Annual Japanese imports are
estimated at around 15 tons.
Production:
China is the primary
producer, with most other product sourced from Egypt, Algeria, Morocco,
and Reunion. Egyptian product is considered of a better quality than
