Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Irrigation regimes did not affect olive fruit mesocarp and endocarp size as fresh and dry weights.
- Intervention effect Fruit yield per tree increased relative to rain-fed trees only above 15 m3 irrigation.
- Intervention effect Oil yield per tree increased relative to rain-fed trees only above 15 m3 irrigation.
- Intervention effect Irrigation above the threshold increased crop load relative to rain-fed trees in off and on years.
- Intervention effect There were no residual irrigation effects on yield components in 2013.
- Recommendation The authors conclude irrigation of at least 35% of seasonal water requirement can positively affect fruit yield, especially in on years.
