Olive Tree Sapling Piqual

The Piqual variety is classified among the early varieties with high productivity. It is very resistant to cold and drought. It is widely cultivated in Spain and is estimated to cover about 50% of its total olive oil production. The Piqual olive tree is a medium-sized tree, so it is also used in dense plantings (7x3.5 m). It is a variety that with the right care (irrigation, fertilization, pruning) produces fruit weighing 2-4 gr almost every year to a satisfactory degree. It is considered an early variety with a harvest period in mid-November. It is considered an olive tree variety with a fairly high resistance and responds extremely well in areas with an altitude of more than 300 m but equally well at lower altitudes.
