In 2003 Earthoil established a mint oil project in Uttar Pradesh India which involved over 500 small-scale farmers from one region. These farmers had previously been growing mint oils conventionally and Earthoil encouraged the farmers to convert the project to organic - offering support and logistics to do so. Earthoil employed agronomists and field managers to oversee the project and educate the farmers on organic farming methods including:
This project is now overseen by Earthoil's Special Projects Director (Organic and Fair Trade) Rob Hardy - which means the project is given full time input and the farmers, field managers and agronomists have a point of contact on all issues relating to the project. Rob oversees the organic certification of these lands and all the associated paperwork and documentation.
