Frequently asked questions

How is the olive oil price in Italy calculated?
It is the OLEA-EVOO-IT benchmark: a weighted average of non-quarantined origin-price observations over a 14-day window, weighted by recency, source tier and volume.
Why compare Italy with the EU composite?
The OLEA-EVOO-EU composite weights the four producing markets by production, so the premium or discount of a national price against it shows how a market moves relative to Europe as a whole.
Is this a retail price?
No. It is the price at origin (producer/mill level), before bottling, distribution and retail margins.
