Quanta infestazione di mosca possiamo tollerare?
2022
In questo articolo sono riportati i sorprendenti risultati dei pochi recenti articoli scientifici che indicano la soglia di tolleranza della mosca delle olive per l'ottenimento di olio. In caso di raccolte precoci e medie, con estrazione entro le 24 ore, si possono ottenere oli extravergini d'altà qualità anche con 43-44% di fori d'uscita di Bactrocera oleae This article reports the surprising results of the few recent scientific papers that indicate the tolerance threshold of olive fly for obtaining oil. In case of early and medium harvests, with extraction within 24 hours, high quality extra virgin olive oils can be obtained even with 43-44% exit holes of Bactrocera oleae
Evaluation of different mechanical fruit harvesting systems and oil quality in very large size olive trees
2014
In 2006 and 2009, trials were carried out in the Apulia region in Southern Italy to evalu-ate the possibility of mechanizing olive harvesting in groves of old and very large trees. The trees belonged to the cultivars ‘Cellina di Nardò’ and ‘Ogliarola Salentina’. They were 60-100 years old and 7-9 m tall with a canopy volume of 140-360 m3. In the first half of November 2006, with a mechanical beater mounted on a tractor plus hand-held pneumatic combs, the harvesting yield was close to 90% of the total olives present in the canopy, and the harvesting working productivity was around 60 kg of harvested olives h-1 worker-1. With a self-propelled shaker attached to the main branches the harvestin…
