CALENZANO, ITALY - 24 NOVEMBER 2014: Olive oil earthenware jars ("orcie" in Italian) are stored here in the farm of olive oil producer Federico Dufour in Calenzano, 20 kilometers north of Florence, Italy, on November 24th 2014. These earthenware are no longer used since European regulation imposed the usage of alluminium containers for the storage of olive oil.


The olive harvest was practically non-existent this fall in Calenzano because of the Bactrocera oleae, an olive fruit fly that this year ravaged entire olive crops. Italy’s Institute of Services for Agriculture and Food Market, or ISMEA, calculated that olive oil production fell on average by 35 percent from 302,000 tons from 463,000 the previous year.
