Within the field of university research, the viability of cultivating some palmaceae varieties (palm trees) is being examined.
This viable project opens a great many doors to alleviate the crisis that the agricultural sector is currently experiencing. Orihuela Higher Polytechnic College has confirmed the success of the first experiments on production of bio-fuel.
