Training
Frantoio del Monte Pisano offers a “wide range of training services dedicated to olive growers and people who generally want to approach the world of” olive growing. We also frequently host conferences and training days organized within the context of funded projects.
During the months of the “year that don’t fall within the olive pressing period, the” company organizes training events, conferences, and professional courses. These events are specifically designed to disseminate cutting-edge techniques and best practices, created to increase the number of specialized operators in the area and to support the work of those olive growers who wish to obtain a high-quality product that is genuine and respectful of the “environment and its resources. The training and refresher courses range from olive grove reformation and pruning to soil management and nutrition, from plant fertilization to defense against major diseases.”
Tasting courses, introduction to tasting techniques, and experiential events are also organized to enhance and pair the aromas of “olive oil with” art, cuisine, and music.
Professional and introductory training
Professional Training Courses, Pruning and Introduction to Olive Growing
Throughout the year, the oil mill holds courses on pruning, olive grove management, reclamation, and recovery of olive groves no longer in production. Good pruning stimulates flowering, fruiting, and ensures longevity to the plants, improving harvest quality and reducing the risk of diseases.
The oil mill offers training courses for both beginners and experienced pruners with dedicated programs and activities.
The courses are held at the oil mill, in our olive groves, or, upon request, at other olive groves and farms.
