The experiment was conducted to study growth response of five olive cultivars to different cutting lengths. Hardwood stem cuttings of 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35 cm were taken from cultivars Azarbaijan, Uslu, Improved Nabali, Manzallino and Leccino. Maximum number of shoots (5.51), shoot length (22.29 cm), root length (12.60 cm) and survival rate (65.55%) was recorded by cultivar Azerbaijan at 20 cm cuttings length, while the first sprouting (33.24 days) and maximum number of roots (15.39) was found in cultivar Azarbaijan at 15 cm cuttings length.
