Soil plant-available nutrients and olive leaf concentrations in Terra rossa soil from Adriatic coast

Soil nutrient availability (determined by extraction) should be compared with plant nutrient uptake, but such information is scarce for olives. Similarly, there is little information regarding a relationship among total soil nutrients, available fractions and plant uptake as a basis for tracing geographic origins of olive oil. Olives grown on Terra rossa soils along the Adriatic coast had sufficient leaf nutrients concentrations, which contributed to the correlations between plant- available nutrients in soil and leaf nutrient concentrations being mostly non-significant. High leaf Cu concentrations (above toxicity thresholds) can be result of intensive fungicide applications at some locations.
