Olive trees for oil
Galega

Galega is a very hardy Portuguese variety that does well in most Portuguese soils. It tolerates colder, clay soils and harsh weather better and, thanks to its large size and root system, makes better use of the soil and needs fewer nutrients. It is prone to olive knot, cercospora leaf spot, scale insects and sooty mould, and susceptible to anthracnose and olive fly.
