Abstract: | This study analysed the growth of the Bidni olive tree variety over a 10-year period. This was done by comparing the data collected of the same trees and sites in 2010, 2016, and 2020/1. The height, girth, and leaf measurements of each trees elected were measured, whilst analysing soil samples taken at each location. Questionnaires were distributed to all site owners to compare the growth with the land management and environmental conditions. Results obtained from this study showed that different land management practices and environmental conditions varied the growth increase of some sites, whilst other types of land management practices have shown no difference in the olive trees’ growth. The trees’ growth has varied quite a lot between different sites. The alternative hypothesis was accepted since the growth of the chosen Bidni olive trees varies between different olive trees in the same site and between different locations was accepted. |
