Regional farmers are harvesting their olives this year from 15 October until 15 November. According to figures issued by the United Nations some 80,000 Palestinian families earn their income from growing olives in plantations which reportedly occupy about 48 percent of the agricultural land in the West Bank and Gaza strip. About 93 percent of the olive harvest is pressed to oil with the rest being used in soap production. EPA/ALAA BADARNEH ATTENTION: This Image is part of a PHOTO SET
