Al-Muasir: Olive Season Start Delayed
The President of the Olive Press Owners Association in Jordan, Taysir Al-Najdawi, reported that the olive season has begun gradually and is experiencing a slowdown due to the low oil content in the fruits, which have not yet reached full ripeness. He pointed out that the timing of ripening varies depending on the regions and varieties, necessitating a delay in harvesting by about ten days to two weeks to enhance oil quality and increase its percentage. The price of olive oil is expected to range between 95 and 120 dinars per barrel during the season, with optimism about sustained production to meet local demand and achieve self-sufficiency. The market's annual need is approximately 25,000 tons, and there are around 20 million olive trees in the country.
