Abstract

In Turkey, harvesting of olive is generally made by hand. Because of this, growers have a difficulty time harvesting. In addition, the cost is also high. When the harvest is made by hand or by shaking the branches with hand, the fruits are sometimes harvested with their clusters and some of the olives, which are not ripened, are harvested, as well.
