Effect of different irrigation levels on growth and crop yield of 'Istrska belica' olive trees (Olea europaea L.) in the northern Mediterranean region

Different irrigation regimes on olive trees growth and olives were examined (control, 33, 66 and 100% ETC) were examined. The regime between 33 and 66% ETC showed the most promising results.

DEFICIT IRRIGATION PRINCIPLES APPLIED TO OLIVE ORCHARD IN SLOVENE ISTRIA

The olive tree has anatomical-morphological and physiological adaptations which enable it to cope well with dry conditions and water deficits. However, if water shortage occurs during the development phases (shoot growth, flower bud development, bloom, fruit set, cell division and enlargement and oil accumulation), which are the most susceptible to stress, it can also have a negative effect on the growth and productivity of olive trees. The Slovenian Istria is facing with increased risk of drought. Due to increased occurrence and intensity of agricultural droughts controlled deficit irrigation will become an inevitable element of agricultural practice in Slovene Istria.
