Working directly with producers gives us a great insight into the production of olive oil, we chatted with Eduardo at Camp di Torri and asked this very question. her was the reply
“Organic olive oil is a premium product derived from olives grown using organic farming practices, which exclude the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides and fertilizers. The cultivation of organic olives and the production of the oil are strictly regulated to ensure that the final product is natural, pure and rich in nutrients.
Organic olive oil is not only prized for its health benefits, but also for its superior taste and environmental sustainability.
The organic olive oil production process begins with the careful cultivation of olive trees. Organic farmers employ methods such as crop rotation, composting and the use of natural predators to maintain soil fertility and control pests.
These practices promote biodiversity and soil health, leading to healthier olive trees and higher quality olives. The absence of synthetic chemicals also ensures that the oil is free of harmful residues, making it a safer choice for consumers.”
