Optimal harvesting period for "Arbequina" olive cultivar in Catalonia (Spain)
2002
Romero, A. | Díaz, I. | Tous, J.
Ripening process in 'Arbequina' olives changes a lot with respect to yield of the trees and it is not able to apply classical maturity index to delimit the optimal harvesting period. During three crops, olive samples were collected from adult trees with both high and low yields, along the ripening period. Significant changes within time were observed in fruit removal force to fresh weight ratio, dry basis oil content, water content and fatty acid composition. The analysis of fruit distribution in skin colour classes seems to be a good method to determine the beginning of harvesting period for 'Arbequina' cultivar.
