<pre>Dear Friends,

Please welcome me as a new member of this list.
I am mainly a historian of the pre-industrial Mediterranean
and I have done some research on agriculture, including
olive growing and trade in the late antiquity period, with
a focus on western Greece and southern Italy. Also I live
in an olive-producing region of western Greece.

In this context I am interested in gathering some current
production and trade statistics on a regional basis. I have
already found many of the websites offering statistics on a
nation-wide basis, while for Spain, for example, I found the
ASOLIVA website which does have some useful numbers
for the country's regions.

Can anyone recommend websites with country production
and trade statistics on a regional basis, perhaps other industry
association sites analogous to that of ASOLIVA? I am particularly
interested in the regions of Greece and southern Italy, but also
those of some other Mediterranean countries.

I already have the country-wide statistics files in PDF from
the International Olive Oil Council which, though they have some
information on regions of EU countries, they are otherwise of
little use.

Besides English, I can read Greek, Italian, Spanish, French
and Portuguese (unfortunately no Arabic, Turkish, Albanian,
or Serbo-Croatian).

Thank you in advance for you kind assistance.

Sincerely,

Steve

<pre>Dear Steve,
Aegean Exporters' Association is the coordinator
association for olive oil exportation in Turkey. Its
website is both in English and Turkish. There you can
find not only information about association but also
the list of members, too. Just click the below link to
enter web site. And very soon a new publication will
be shared on the web which will give information about
Turkish Olive Oil. I will send the details about it
later.

Best regards,
Ekin

<pre>--In my opinion http://oracle2.mapya.es/pls/aaoliva/inicio
is the best wedsite with Spanish statistic.
It removes monthly figures of production, export, import, stock.

Welcome Steve! You wouldn't by any chance be anywhere near Agrinio? We have a
small family farm with a 1000+ tree grove there.
