Due to the adverse stress conditions typical of olive cultivation in desert conditions,
the olive tree is responding with production of high levels of antioxidant substances.
Among these substances are polyphenols, tocopherols, and phytosterols. Studies have
shown that saline irrigated varieties of olives have demonstrated advantages over
those irrigated with tap water. This is just one of the aspects of desert cultivation
of olives that is covered in Desert Olive Oil Advanced Biotechnologies. Based on 20
years of research, the book expounds on the appropriate selection of olive varieties
with high productivity and oil quality, the impact of foliar nutrition on decreasing
alternate bearing and increasing fruit quality, improving efficiency of mechanical
harvesting, and increasing efficiency of oil extraction and oil quality regulating
