Irrigation systems have been recently installed in rain fed adult olive orchards and new drip irrigated olive orchards have been planted in the Aragon region of Spain (Southeast of Saragossa). The objective of the present study was to determine the response of adult olive trees to variable water quantities applied through drip irrigation.

Olive growing is an important crop in Turkey, having 17% of the total world table olive production. Water is a limiting factor for olive production in the study region, 250 Km south of Istanbul (vicinity of the City of Iznik, Province of Bursa). Presently furrow and sprinkler irrigation are the prevalent methods, but drip irrigation, because of its inherent advantages, is becoming more popular.

This economic analysis was done to help olive growers make intelligent decisions regarding investments in drip irrigation.
