The situation with olive oil this year is bad... so bad that some farmers are using fake GPS olives to track stolen olives: https://greekreporter.com/2023/10/23/greek-farmers-use-gps-t...

The price for virgin olive oil used to be 3-4 €/liter in the last couple of years and now it has soared to above 10 €/L. You can find some local producers (relatives/friends) selling for around 8 €/L but most people in the big cities will never see such a low price, on the contrary it will reach them for around 15 €/L :-(

Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal (among other Mediterranean countries) rely heavily on olive oil for food preparation and this will affect prices and inflation.
