Efficient and high-quality olive oil extraction depends on fine-tuning multiple process variables. Below are critical control points and potential adjustment areas within modern olive oil production systems:

As global extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) production expands into non-traditional regions with varying climates and agroecological conditions, producers are facing a new wave of operational complexities. Join leading agricultural scientist and processing expert Pablo Canamasas as he unpacks the evolving challenges in EVOO extraction and explores strategic solutions tailored for industrial-scale operations. In this exclusive video, you’ll gain insig

Maintaining the cleanliness of your Oliomio olive processing equipment is essential for ensuring hygiene, peak operational performance, and the long-term durability of your machinery. Below is a recommended cleaning procedure for key components of your system:

The study, which focused on the ‘Ortice’ and ‘Ortolana’ olive cultivars, found that this technology achieved a mechanical harvesting yield of approximately 97%, highlighting its potential to significantly enhance productivity and cost-effectiveness in modern olive farming.

Shotberries are undersized, non-viable olives that grow to a maximum of about 4mm. They remain on the tree but do not mature into full-sized fruit, leading to significant yield losses.

Herbicides are a crucial tool in modern agriculture, but recent research highlights an unintended consequence that olive producers must consider—potential harm to pollination. A study by Dummer et al. (2025) has identified that common herbicides, including glyphosate and 2,4-D, significantly impair olive pollen germination, raising serious concerns about their impact on fruit set and overall yield.

For businesses and serious growers considering olive oil extraction, the idea of owning a machine for under $10,000 may seem like an attractive entry point. However, achieving high-quality olive oil requires advanced extraction technology that meets food-grade standards. The extraction process is highly technical, demanding specialised equipment to maintain oil integrity and efficiency. This guide will help you understand the essential components
