University of California, Davis Conference Center
UC Davis Olive Center and the California Olive Oil Council
This symposium will be the largest California event ever dedicated to super-high-density (SHD) olive production. Although published research for this production method is limited, the symposium will feature the best-available information from university and industry leaders, many of whom have been working with large acreages in SHD olive production. There also will be ample opportunity for audience questions. The symposium will be presented at the beautiful new UC Davis Conference Center.
In existence in California for just more than a decade, SHD olive production is driving the growth of olive oil in California. More than 80 percent of olive oil acreage is in the SHD system. This year California will surpass France in olive oil production for the first time. Find out more about SHD olive production at UC Davis.
