Olive and olive oil production estimates in Palestine have fallen by about 50% this season, from forecasts of 21,000 tonnes in the West Bank and around 350 tonnes in Gaza to just 10,000–11,000 tonnes. Fayad Fayad, an adviser to the International Olive Council, attributed the decline to the occupation forces and settlers preventing farmers from reaching their land, early harvesting before the fruit had ripened, and heat waves, drought and water shortages. At the start of the season, oil content ranged from 11% to 13%; it has now reached around 23%, compared with more than 30% to 34% under normal conditions. He urged farmers in safe areas to delay harvesting and encouraged them to pool small harvests for collective pressing and joint marketing, to reduce oil waste and improve returns.
