Californian Olive farmers to earn record prices
After a small harvest last year, demand for California-grown olives has risen, and farmers will earn a record price for their crops this year.
The Olive Growers Council and olive canners have agreed on prices that will earn farmers an average of $1,000 a ton. Because of last year’s small crop, stocks of canned olives are at a low point. California is the only state in the nation where olives are grown commercially.
