Extra virgin olive oil:
This type of olive oil is of the highest quality, it is obtained using mechanical processes and is considered olive juice, preserving all its organoleptic properties and preserving all its properties.
Extra virgin olive oil must have an acidity of less than 0.8% and must not have any organoleptic defects when tasted.
In this variant it is suitable for sale to the end consumer and is ideal for raw preparations.
Virgin olive oil:
Like the extra virgin, this variant is also obtained exclusively through mechanical processes and is considered olive juice.
However, in this case the acidity must be less than 2% and there may be organoleptic taste defects in terms of smell or taste.
Likewise, it is suitable for sale to the end consumer and is best suited for stews of all kinds.
Lampante olive oil:
This type of olive oil is characterized by high acidity and a very unpleasant taste and smell that prevents consumption.
The origin of its name comes from its traditional use as fuel in oil lamps.
It has an acidity of more than 2 degrees and is not suitable for consumption as it must be refined.
These have not been easy times for the olive oil market (EFE)
2025 was not the best year for olive oil producers; Climate change affected the market for this important product for the country.
The impact on olive oil has been so great that experts predict lower production for the rest of the 2025/2026 season, which could lead to price fluctuations, but everything depends on the weather conditions in the next two months.
“Experts and analysts from six of the world’s largest olive oil producing countries estimate that production in these countries could reach 2.65 million tons,” notes the trade magazine Olive Times.
Olive oil production is forecast to decline in the coming months in Greece, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Tunisia and Turkey compared to the 2.94 million tonnes produced in the 2024/25 season. However, there is hope that the five-year average of 2.41 million tonnes will be exceeded.
MAPA did not rule out a “big harvest in 2025/26” given the abundant rainfall and mild spring temperatures, which is why it submitted a draft oil marketing standard for public consultation in August to activate product withdrawal in the next campaign and avoid sales below cost.
The possible application of the oil market withdrawal mechanism for the next campaign awaits the publication of the final order, which, according to Agriculture, will only be carried out “if the estimates of high olive oil production and possible market imbalances are finally confirmed”.
