NEW HARVEST OILS - Northern Hemisphere 2018 Fall/Winter - Olive Oil Emporium
It was a difficult season for many growers throughout Europe and in California this season. With challenges that included drought, hail, early frost, olive fruit fly, and the xylella fastidiosa bacterium, some regions saw a drop between 35% to 65% in yield this year over the previous harvest.
