ECONOMICS: A well-managed olive orchard can produce on average 5 tons/acre and each ton can produce 40 gallons of olive oil. Right now the market is around $17/gallon. That amounts to a gross profit of $3,400/acre. The cultural cost average is around $1,500/acre, leaving a net profit of nearly $2,000/acre. Name a crop that is producing better income and I'd be happy to plant it right now!
COMMENTS: This is an income-producing, low-labor, and easy-to-manage crop. In addition to the cash flow, this is an investment that is a hedge against inflation and offers significant depreciation. The growing demand for olive oil and a lack of new plantings guarantees this ranch a bright future!
