| Résumé : | This study evaluates the olive-growing sector in Algeria’s arid areas, which covers 16 500 hec-tares with 4 501 397 olive trees, including 3 963 844 massed and 537 553 isolated trees. Biskra province leads with 30% of the southern olive-growing area, followed by El Oued (21%) and Laghouat (15%). Although the Saharan olive orchard represents only 3.66% of the national olive-growing area, it contributes significantly to production, accounting for 6% of total trees, 7% of massed trees, and 37% of olive oil and 63% of canning production. Olive groves in the south are often intercropped with date palms. A vast program has been launched with the aim not on-ly of satisfying national needs in terms of oil consumption and canned olive production, but also of extending olive-growing areas in order to increase yields, demonstrating significant efforts to develop the sector. |
