All the fertilizers were applied on the soil surface. The indications obtained are that: 1) For the fruit production the best combination is 1.2-1.2-0.8(N-P2O5-K2O) kg/tree/year, which resulted in an increase of 23 kg/tree/year. 2) Olive oil and water content of fruit were not affected from the fertilizers. 3) For annual shoot lenght, blooming and fruit setting N had favorable effect, without significant difference between the three levels
