Abstract
Industrial or extractive crops are agricultural crops grown
primarily for an extractive commodity and are important economic
components of many agricultural production systems [1]. They provide
novel plant based products for a wide range of uses. These crops are
generally regarded as high value per production land area crops and
can provide a significant income stream to producers. Furthermore
the requirement for additional processing creates additional economic
activity, industrial development and associated employment and adds
significant value to the saleable products.
