Sustainable Valorization of Olive Oil By-Products

This composting technology transforms olive mill sludge and leaf residues into high-quality organic fertilizers. Field trials confirm enhanced soil organic matter, improved fertility, reduced erosion, and lower synthetic fertilizer use. The process supports circular agriculture, reduces pollution risks, and offers a scalable, cost-effective solution for olive producers. Backed by research, including Kiliç & Kavdir (2013), it promotes sustainable soil management and long-term productivity.
