Arbeqine olive sapling is a tree widely grown in Spain, also known as dwarf olive. This sapling, which is widely used in our country, is very efficient in terms of oil yield and oil quality. Olives of this type are round and small. The extracted oil has a high concentration value and has an intense aroma. It is used in olive oil production as well as for table consumption. Compared to most oil olives, the harvest time of this olive is in November and corresponds to an earlier period. Its trees are not very strong and large. For this reason, it is named as scrub and the mechanical collection process is extremely difficult. However, various mechanical harvesting methods have been developed for this type of olives and have started to operate slowly in our country.
Land to Grow Arbeqine Olive Saplings
First of all, 100 decares of land is suggested for the first planting stage of Arbeqine olive sapling . This sapling, which has an extremely fast climate adaptation structure, can be grown in all areas where bottom water is not available. If mechanical damage is to be made for this species, the slope of the cultivated land should not be too high. If there is no machine harvesting, sowing can be done easily on all kinds of land. It requires a little more water than other types of olive trees. However, this is true for high efficiency. This species, which can also get used to an anhydrous environment, can live in an environment without water, but its efficiency may decrease slightly.
