Turkey cultivates approximately 900,000–1,000,000 hectares of olive groves and produces 200,000–400,000 tonnes of olive oil annually (significant year-to-year variation due to biennial bearing). Turkey has the world's largest olive tree population (~100+ million trees), though many are older trees of lower productivity than modern high-density Spanish plantations. Key production regions: the Aegean region accounts for approximately 70–75% of Turkish olive oil production. Aydın province is the most important single olive oil province (Germencik, Nazilli, Söke, Kuyucak sub-districts); İzmir province (Akhisar — important for both table olives and oil; Torbalı, Kiraz, Ödemiş); Muğla province (Milas, Ortaca — with distinctive characterful olive varieties including memecik and uslu); Balıkesir province (Edremit Gulf area — home to Turkey's most renowned premium olive oil, Edremit körfezi olive oil from the ayvalık variety). The Marmara region (Bursa, Yalova, Kocaeli — primarily for table olives and smaller oil volumes) and the Mediterranean region (Mersin, Adana, Hatay — where Antakya/Hatay has a distinct olive oil culture, particularly the village of Harbiye known for late-harvest olive oil) are secondary production areas.
