- Intervention effect Early June water deficit reduced vegetative shoot growth.
- Intervention effect Early June water deficit delayed flowering.
- Intervention effect Early June water deficit shortened fruit maturation.
- Intervention effect Early June water deficit decreased fructification.
- Intervention effect High and full irrigation yielded higher flower density than no irrigation.
- Intervention effect High and full irrigation yielded higher fruit density than no irrigation.
- Intervention effect High and full irrigation yielded higher final fruit yield than no irrigation.
- Intervention effect Irrigation enhanced Arbequina water productivity by about 500% relative to unirrigated trees.
- Intervention effect Irrigation enhanced Manzanilla water productivity by about 330% relative to unirrigated trees.
- Association Differences in oil content and composition among treatments were attributed mainly to fruit maturity.
- Observation Fatty acid composition differences were stronger in Arbequina.
- Intervention effect Most analyzed parameters were similar under T75 and T100 irrigation.
- Recommendation The authors recommend considering T75 irrigation for profitable olive production and water savings.
