explaining to those who don't understand, olive trees are very sensitive to cracks like the ones shown in the video, storms can also cause damage of equal or greater magnitude, the tree goes into recession and only returns to producing at maximum capacity several years later. Tree pruning must be done by experienced and knowledgeable people, and harvesting must be carried out with care. This is one of the reasons why the product is expensive, among others.

Yes thank you for the education. I had a Cypriot neighbor growing up that insisted his uncle was the only fellow who really knew how to properly prune an olive.

My sister bought an Olive farm .. she has 7 plots of land now but all were worthless this year bc of the droughts; Hopefully we get to harvest next year i'll be helping out. I suppose if the farms that produced this year and have damaged trees.. a lot of stealing will be happening in those areas that will produce a good harvest the upcoming year. I am already thinking of a way to tackle this should it occur. Thanks for your information !

Interesting video. There are drones with thermal imaging cameras for around a $1,000 dollars. They will clearly and quickly detect body heat. Law enforcement agencies use them regularly to catch fleeing criminals. Obviously someone would have to monitor the drone, but one person could monitor the entire farm (obviously only during harvest season when thefts are likely). Additionally there are certain breeds of dogs that would protect their products.
@__WandererАй бұрын
it's what I was thinking as well - you could even automate it and have an automatic detection of "white spots" or warm areas that could be people. You have a system of 6 drones that take it in turns to rise up for 2 minutes (perhaps waiting 5-10 minutes between snapshots), take a panorama and then drop and go into standby. Couple that to an app with starlink and you can relay any intrusions automatically to an app on the farmers phone. If a target is found within the area of interest (the farm) at a time that is not authorized, the drone stays in the area to give live feed to the farmer.

I just watched a video on bees (honey), and there are many different types of bees. Would it be possible to set up honey bees along with the olive trees, where only family and trusted people know about? For the thieves to get stung, might help?

You are not purchasing pure olive oil. You never were.

Are we allowed to name the thieves?

bold of you to assume a middle aged spanish farmer would know how to use it.

I think my country is becoming more like yours, wrong ppl in government! These crooks should be carted off to prison but the law enforcement doesn’t care. I’m so sorry that you and other farmers have to endure this crime. Can you place hidden cameras around as well as dogs to ward off these criminals? I think raising animals around these precious trees can also be a goof source of income & can make the noise needed to catch the thieves too. Be blessed
