Answer
Is Llucmajor a good place to visit if you are worried about farm smells?
Llucmajor is a rural area, so smells from agriculture can sometimes be part of daily life, especially on roads near farms. The current restrictions on the laying hen operation are intended to reduce one of the main local nuisance issues. If you are staying nearby, conditions may improve over time, but rural Mallorca can still have the usual countryside smells.
