An increase in the land area dedicated to super-high density olive orchards has occurred in Chile in recent years. Such modern orchards have high irrigation requirements, and optimizing water use is a priority. Moreover, this region presents low water availability, which makes necessary to establish irrigation strategies to improve water productivity. An experiment was conducted during four con...

In the present work, we compared phenol content and composition of fruit from ‘Arbequina’ cultivar in four Mediterranean (in Andalucía, Southern Iberian Peninsula) two Sub-Tropical (Canary Islands) locations throughout harvest period. Two were maintained with drip irrigation, while remaining dry farming. Water availability date seemed to play more important roles than air temperature on phenoli...

In recent years, North-western Spain has experienced an increase in the cultivated area of olive trees. The main propitious areas for groves are Miño and Sil basins, as a consequence their Oceanic climate with Mediterranean influence. objective this study is to determine characteristics reproductive biology, phenological aerobiological behaviour trees most northerly new plantation Iberian Penin...

The olive tree (Olea europaea L.) has been cultivated around the Mediterranean basin since ancient times, ‘Arbequina’ being one of most widely grown varieties. To improve knowledge on ripening-related firmness changes in fruit, cell wall metabolism was studied irrigated and rain-fed olives at ‘Les Garrigues’, a Protected Designation Origin (PDO) Catalonia (NE Spain) where harsh environmental co...

Oleuropein and other phenolic compounds contained in olive leaves give it the potential to be transformed from residue co-product an oil mill. However, moment of agronomic cycle which their transformation is higher not known detail. Therefore, for first time, a monthly study evolution such throughout made (November 2019 October 2020). Arbequina were collected three plots interactive effects con...
