THE OLIVE TREE FLY INFESTATION IS A MINOR PROBLEM IN THE OLIVE GROVES OF SIERRA DE ENGUERA. COULD IT BE THAT THERE IS A GOOD BIOLOGICAL CONTROL OF THE OLIVE TREE FLY IN THIS MODEL OF SMALLHOLDER ECOLOGICAL MOUNTAIN OLIVICULTURE?

This is how our project began in 2019, aimed at learning about the effect of biodiversity on the biological control of the olive fly. In this case, we have the collaboration of the Enguera City Council, the CampoEnguera Cooperative and the Society of Ecological and Mountain Agriculture of the Valencian Community (SAEM), as well as the financing of the aid program of the Cooperation Projects related to innovative and sustainable experiences between producers and the research centers of the Generalitat Valenciana.
