<pre>Our book on olives and olive oil( Discovering Oil - Tales from an
olive grove in Umbria) is now available from the Australian Olive Grower.
For more details see the April issue.

It is $AUS 34.95 including postage and packing. To order call the
Australian Olive Grower on (07) 5466 1333.

Last year we had 120 kg of oil from 800 kg of fresh olives. This
was about normal from us - just under 15% but we are picking early to
improve flavour. If we left them anyother couple of weeks we could expect a
slight increase in oil percentage and oil yield - perhaps as much as 1%.
After this the oil percentage would continue to rise but the yield would
drop with increasing fruit fall.

Cheers Brian Chatterton.
