Increasing prices and market demand for organic products are stimulants of organic farming. However, this sector is a challenge for producers and further improvements are still necessary. The present study case was conducted to compare the effects of organic (OF) and conventional (CF) farming on lavender (Lavandula angustifolia Mill.) oil yield, pl...

... contents and pigments determine the color of each leaf, and changes in the amounts of these pigments have been used in various statistical correlations and analyses for inferring plant health, chemistry and physiology [23,24]. Our results about plant pigment concentrations are given in Table 2 Agronomy 2024, 14, 32 8 of 14 budding stage of lavender had a certain positive effect on the chlorophyll content in L. angustifolia [23]. At the same time, the levels of variation in OF were significantly closer (251.3-275.7 µg·g −1 ) compared with CF (292.8-377.5 µg·g −1 ). ...

... presented results demonstrated that the total monomeric anthocyanin content in L. angustifolia, grown by OF and CF, was in the range from 200 to 1240 µg cyn-3-gly.g −1 dry weight (Table 2). In general, total monomeric anthocyanins were in the highest content in organically grown lavender samples. ...
