PECT Motors pel SEGARRA&GARRIGUES - qualitat oli - Technological applications for improving olive oil quality

The basic objectives of the operation are:

• To have a quantitative and qualitative inventory of the oil mills available in the S & G’s area of influence, enabling medium-term needs to be forecast in terms of both infrastructure and technological improvements, supporting the decision-making process in its continuous improvement.
• To maximise the quality of the oils obtained in the S & G’s area of influence through continuous and specialised advice on oil mill management and, in general, throughout the entire oil production chain, incorporating new technologies into the process.
• Minimise the possible impact on oil quality due to the massive influx of product from new irrigated areas, advising on yard management and improving mill regulation and cellar management.
• Introduce and consolidate the technical capabilities and technologies necessary for this new regulation and management in new irrigated areas.
• Have the necessary information to objectively assess the current state and potential of the oil sector in the S & G’s area of influence, identifying possible priority actions that can serve as a basis for strategic plans for public policies and private strategies in this field.

This project is co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) of the European Union and the Government of Catalonia, within the framework of the ERDF Operational Programme for Catalonia 2014-2020.
