[0002] Olive is one of the world's most famous woody oilseed tree species, with a tall stature. Olive tea is made from the tender buds of olive trees. After the Qingming Festival, one bud and two leaves are picked from the olive tree, and then processed through shaping, roasting for aroma enhancement, and sun-drying. However, picking olive buds from olive trees is not only inefficient and dangerous, but also affects the fruit-bearing capacity of the olive trees. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a cultivation method that can improve the yield and quality of olive tea. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for intensive cultivation of olive tea, which can improve the yield and quality of olive tea.
[0004] This invention discloses a method for intensive planting of olive trees and tea leaves, comprising the following steps: planting olive seedlings in soil; performing the first pruning after the spring shoots of the olive trees have stopped growing; performing the second pruning during the winter dormancy period; and performing regular pruning once every winter thereafter.
[0005] The first pruning includes setting the olives to a height of 50-60cm;
[0006] The height of the olive trees after the second pruning is 65-70cm; 2-3 lateral branches are retained between the rows of olive trees after the second pruning.
[0007] The height of the conventionally pruned olive tree is 1.2–1.5 m; the crown width of the conventionally pruned olive tree is 0.8–1.2 m.
[0008] The olive trees are planted in double rows per ridge; the plant spacing is 20-30cm; the row spacing within the ridge is 30-60cm; and the ridge spacing is 1-2m.
[0009] The olive varieties mentioned include at least one of Chenggu, Pixiaoli, and Laixing.
[0010] As a preferred option, the olive seedlings are 2 to 3 years old.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment, the olive seedlings include container seedlings.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment, the olive seedling is 60-80cm tall; the main trunk of the olive seedling includes a single-trunk, layered type.
[0014] As a preferred embodiment, the process before planting also includes: applying base fertilizer; the base fertilizer includes: organic fertilizer, phosphate fertilizer and potassium fertilizer.
[0015] As a preferred embodiment, the application rate of the organic fertilizer is 2-3 tons / mu; the application rate of the phosphate fertilizer is 9-16 kg / mu (based on P2O5); and the application rate of the potassium fertilizer is 15-21 kg / mu (based on K2O).
[0016] As a preferred option, the planted plants are irrigated with water to help them establish roots.
[0017] As a preferred option, the irrigation method includes drip irrigation.

Additionally, the selection of specialized tree varieties ensures more uniform bud shape, resulting in higher quality olive tea. Detailed Implementation
[0020] This invention provides a method for intensive planting of olive trees and tea leaves, comprising the following steps: planting olive seedlings in soil; performing the first pruning after the spring shoots of the olive trees have stopped growing; performing the second pruning during the winter dormancy period; and performing regular pruning once every winter thereafter.
[0021] The first pruning includes setting the olives to a height of 50-60cm;
[0022] The height of the olive trees after the second pruning is 65-70cm; 2-3 lateral branches are retained between the rows of olive trees after the second pruning.
[0023] The height of the conventionally pruned olive tree is 1.2–1.5 m; the crown width of the conventionally pruned olive tree is 0.8–1.2 m.
[0024] The olive trees are planted in double rows per ridge; the plant spacing is 20-30cm; the row spacing within the ridge is 30-60cm; and the ridge spacing is 1-2m.
[0025] The olive varieties mentioned include at least one of Chenggu, Pixiaoli, and Laixing.
[0026] This invention involves planting olive seedlings in soil. As one embodiment, the soil comprises deep, slightly alkaline soil rich in organic matter and with good aeration. The soil described in this invention provides sufficient nutrients for olive growth.
[0027] In one implementation, the pre-planting process includes land preparation and application of base fertilizer; the base fertilizer includes organic fertilizer, phosphate fertilizer, and potassium fertilizer. In one implementation, the organic fertilizer is farmyard manure, including at least one of fermented chicken manure, sheep manure, pig manure, and olive pomace; the application rate of the organic fertilizer is 2-3 tons / mu; in a specific embodiment of the invention, the application rate of the organic fertilizer can be any value within the range of 2-3 tons / mu, for example, 2, 2.3, 2.5, 2.8, or 3 tons / mu. In one implementation, the phosphate fertilizer includes calcium phosphate and / or ammonium phosphate; the application rate of the phosphate fertilizer, calculated as P2O5, is 9-16 kg / mu; in a specific embodiment of the invention, the application rate of the phosphate fertilizer, calculated as P2O5, can be any value within the range of 9-16 kg / mu, for example, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, or 16 kg / mu. In one embodiment, the potassium fertilizer includes potassium chloride; the application rate of the potassium fertilizer, calculated as K2O, is 15-21 kg / mu. In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the application rate of the potassium fertilizer, calculated as K2O, can be any value within the range of 15-21 kg / mu, for example, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, or 21 kg / mu. In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the application of base fertilizer includes: spreading the base fertilizer evenly on the ground surface, then deep plowing to a depth of 30-40 cm, and turning the base fertilizer into the soil layer. The organic fertilizer of the present invention can provide various macro- and micro-elements required for olive growth; the phosphate fertilizer and potassium fertilizer provide phosphorus and potassium for olives, promoting olive growth.
[0028] The olive varieties described in this invention include at least one of Chenggu, Pixiaoli, and Laixing. The olive varieties described in this invention have denser leaves and slender, uniform buds, making the finished olive tea less prone to deformation and breakage. After brewing, the buds have a beautiful shape and are of higher quality.
[0029] In one embodiment, the olive seedlings are 2-3 years old. In another embodiment, the olive seedlings are 60-80 cm tall. In a specific embodiment of the invention, the height of the olive seedlings can be any value within the range of 60-80 cm, such as 60, 65, 70, 75, or 80 cm. The olive seedlings of the age described in this invention have relatively mature root systems, a high survival rate, and a height of 60-80 cm, which meets the requirements for olive pruning. In one embodiment, the main trunk of the olive seedling includes a single-trunk layered type. The single-trunk layered type of olive seedling has a clear layered structure, allowing for the pruning of main branches according to requirements, reducing damage to the tree caused by indiscriminate pruning.
[0030] In one embodiment, the olive seedlings include container seedlings. The container seedlings of this invention come with their own potting soil, resulting in a high survival rate after planting.
[0031] The olive planting method described in this invention is a double-row planting on a single ridge; the plant spacing of the olive trees is 20-30cm; the row spacing within the ridge is 30-60cm; and the ridge spacing is 1-2m. In a specific embodiment of this invention, the plant spacing of the olive trees can be any value within the range of 20-30cm, such as 20, 23, 25, 28, or 30cm; the row spacing within the ridge can be any value within the range of 30-60cm, such as 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, or 60cm; and the ridge spacing can be any value within the range of 1-2m, such as 1, 1.3, 1.6, 1.8, or 2m. Conventional olive planting spacing is 5-6 meters, primarily to provide sufficient growing space for olive seedlings, ensuring ventilation and light penetration, increasing the yield of fresh olives and the oil content of the olives, and also facilitating the harvesting of olives. This invention limits the ridge spacing to 1-2 meters, using densely planted olive ridges. This avoids affecting the fruit-bearing capacity of the olive trees during harvesting, and allows for management that promotes foliage growth. This results in a higher yield of olive buds than conventional planting, ensuring a more secure source of raw materials. Furthermore, the ridge planting method is more conducive to harvesting, significantly increasing the harvesting rate. While a conventional harvesting speed is approximately 0.3-0.6 kg of olive buds per person per day, ridge harvesting can reach 0.8-1.2 kg, effectively reducing labor costs.
[0032] In one implementation method, the olive seedlings are planted in February or March of the Gregorian calendar. This invention involves planting olive seedlings in February or March of the Gregorian calendar, and the first harvest can be carried out on the newly sprouted buds that emerge after the first pruning.
[0033] In one implementation method, the plant is irrigated with a root-setting water. In another implementation method, the irrigation method includes drip irrigation. In this invention, after the olive trees are planted, they are irrigated with a root-setting water, and then irrigated once per quarter. Increasing the irrigation intensity each spring promotes better growth of olive shoots and buds, which is more conducive to harvesting and increases the yield of new shoots. In this invention, spring irrigation ensures that the soil moisture is above 60%, meaning that when the soil is firmly grasped and forms a ball, it is not easily broken when squeezed.
[0034] This invention involves performing the first pruning of the olive tree after the spring shoots have stopped growing. This first pruning includes fixing the olive tree trunk at a height of 50-60 cm. In this embodiment, the height of the fixed trunk can be any value within the range of 50-60 cm, such as 50, 52, 55, 57, or 60 cm. Olive trees are woody plants that can naturally grow to a height exceeding 10 meters. Fixing the olive tree trunk at 50-60 cm during the first pruning of this invention controls the growth height of the olive seedlings and promotes the development of lateral branches, thus forming tree ridges and facilitating subsequent harvesting.
[0035] This invention involves a second pruning during the winter dormancy period after planting the olive trees, followed by a regular pruning once a year in winter. The height of the olive trees after the second pruning is 65-70 cm, and 2-3 lateral branches are retained between rows after the second pruning. In a specific embodiment of this invention, the height of the olive trees can be any value within the range of 65-70 cm, such as 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, or 70 cm. The second pruning height of this invention controls the height of the olive groves, facilitating manual harvesting.
[0036] The height of the conventionally pruned olive trees described in this invention is 1.2–1.5 m; the crown width of the conventionally pruned olive trees is 0.8–1.2 m. In a specific embodiment of this invention, the height of the olive trees can be any value within the range of 1.2–1.5 m, such as 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, or 1.5 m; the crown width of the conventionally pruned olive trees can be any value within the range of 0.8–1.2 m, such as 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 1.1, or 1.2 m. The crown width mentioned in this invention refers to the crown width of two rows of olive trees planted in a single ridge. The height and crown width of the olive trees described in this invention are beneficial for manual harvesting of olive tea, increasing the harvesting rate.
[0037] In one implementation method, starting from the second year of planting, nitrogen fertilizer is applied every March; the amount of nitrogen fertilizer, calculated as N, is 9-14 g / plant. In a specific embodiment of the invention, the amount of nitrogen fertilizer, calculated as N, can be any value within the range of 9-14 g / plant, for example, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, or 14 g / plant. In a specific embodiment of the invention, nitrogen fertilizer is applied in early March; it is applied in a circular trench 10 cm deep and 15 cm away from the base of the trunk, followed by covering with soil and watering. The amount of nitrogen fertilizer applied according to the present invention will not cause root burn and can meet the growth needs of olive trees, which is beneficial to the growth of olive leaves and increases the harvest of olive tea.
[0038] In one implementation method, starting from the second year of planting, phosphate fertilizer is applied every 1-2 years; the application rate of the phosphate fertilizer, calculated as P2O5, is 40-51 g / plant. In a specific embodiment of the invention, the application rate of the phosphate fertilizer, calculated as P2O5, can be any value within the range of 40-51 g / plant, for example, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, or 51 g / plant. In one implementation method, the phosphate fertilizer includes at least one of superphosphate, calcium phosphate, and ammonium phosphate. In a specific embodiment of the invention, the phosphate fertilizer is mixed with organic fertilizer and applied after the autumn rainy season, with a mass ratio of phosphate fertilizer to organic fertilizer of 1:5. Appropriate amounts of phosphate fertilizer can promote the growth of olive branches and leaves and improve the cold resistance of olives.
[0039] As one implementation method, when olive trees show potassium deficiency symptoms, foliar application of potassium fertilizer is performed; the potassium fertilizer includes potassium dihydrogen phosphate, and the mass concentration of the applied potassium fertilizer is 0.3% to 0.5%. In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the mass concentration of the applied potassium fertilizer can be any value within the range of 0.3% to 0.5%, for example, 0.3%, 0.4%, or 0.5%. Potassium fertilizer can improve the water retention of olive trees, and an appropriate amount of potassium fertilizer can improve the color of the finished olive bud tea.
[0040] To further illustrate the present invention, the technical solutions provided by the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the embodiments, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0041] Example 1
[0042] (1) Site Selection: The planting site is located in the river valley along the Bailong River in Wudu District, Longnan City, Gansu Province. The soil in this area is deep, slightly alkaline, rich in organic matter, and has good aeration. Land preparation and basal fertilizer application are carried out in the autumn and winter of the year before planting olives. The fertilizer is applied to the surface layer, and then the soil is plowed to a depth of 30cm to incorporate the fertilizer into the soil. The basal fertilizer is mainly organic fertilizer (fermented farmyard manure), supplemented with phosphate fertilizer (calcium phosphate, ammonium phosphate, etc.) and potassium fertilizer (potassium chloride). 2.5 tons of organic fertilizer are applied per mu (approximately 0.067 hectares). The application rate of phosphate fertilizer is 12 kg per mu (approximately 0.067 hectares). The application rate of potassium fertilizer is 18 kg per mu (approximately 0.067 hectares). Irrigation pipes are laid in the orchard one year before planting. Drip irrigation is preferred.
[0043] (2) Olive seedling selection: Select two-year-old olive seedlings, with varieties such as Chenggu, Laixing, and Pixiaoli. Due to the large number of olive seedlings, the seedling height should be controlled at 60-80cm. The main trunk of the seedling should be a single-trunk layered type. Container seedlings are preferred. Plant them with soil to improve the survival rate.
[0044] (3) Olive seedling transplanting: Olive seedlings are transplanted in February. Before planting, planting pits are dug with a plant spacing of 30cm. Two rows are placed in one ridge, with a row spacing of 60cm within the ridge and a ridge spacing of 1.5m. 1700 plants are planted per acre. After planting, the plants are pruned to a height of 60cm and then irrigated with water to help them settle.
[0045] (4) Field Management: Fertilization begins in the second year after planting, primarily with nitrogen fertilizer. Apply nitrogen fertilizer in early March each year, approximately 13g per plant (N), in a trench about 10cm deep and 15cm away from the base of the trunk. Apply potassium fertilizer in August, using foliar spray of potassium dihydrogen phosphate at a concentration of 0.4%. Begin applying phosphate fertilizer in November, mixing it with organic fertilizer. Apply 46g of phosphate fertilizer and 230g of organic fertilizer per plant (P2O5). Apply phosphate and potassium fertilizer every 1-2 years, depending on the growth of the olive trees. Irrigate quarterly after planting, except during the tea-harvesting season. During the spring tea-harvesting season, increase irrigation to maintain soil moisture above 60%, meaning the soil should be able to form a clump when squeezed and not easily break when pressed again. Loosen the soil 1-2 times annually, once after fertilization in March. Weed and prune dead branches irregularly throughout the year.
[0046] (5) Shaping and pruning: The first pruning is carried out after planting, shortening the main trunk to 50-60cm. The second pruning is carried out during the winter dormancy period of the same year, with a height of 65-70cm. 2-3 lateral branches are cultivated between rows. Pruning is carried out every winter thereafter, with the height controlled below 1.5m. After 10 years of planting, if the trunk is old, it needs to be shortened to about 30cm above the ground, and the main trunk is re-cultivated and shaped.
[0047] (6) Harvesting: Harvesting begins from April to June each year, depending on the growth of the olive trees. The yield reaches its peak 3 years after the tea garden is established. The yield of tea leaves can reach 27.3-31.2 kg per mu per harvest, with an average of 30.2 kg. Harvesting is carried out every 10 days during the harvest season. The yield of tea leaves in one harvest season is about 245-280 kg per mu, with an average of 271.8 kg. The daily harvest per person is 2.3-2.6 kg, with an average of 2.52 kg.
[0048] Comparative Example 1
[0049] (1) Site selection: The operation is carried out according to step (1) of Example 1.
[0050] (2) Olive seedling selection: The operation is carried out according to step (2) of Example 1, except that the olive seedling varieties are Ezhi No. 8, Miracle and Alposana.
[0051] (3) Olive seedling transplantation: The operation is carried out according to step (3) of Example 1.
[0052] (4) Field management: The operation shall be carried out in accordance with step (4) of Example 1.
[0053] (5) Shaping and pruning: The operation is carried out according to step (5) of Example 1.
[0054] (6) Harvesting: Harvesting begins from April to June each year. The yield reaches its peak three years after the tea garden is established. The yield per mu (a Chinese unit of area, approximately 0.067 hectares) can reach 15.7-23.5 kg of tea leaves per harvest, with an average of 20.5 kg. Harvesting takes place every 10 days during the harvest season. The yield per mu in a single harvest season is approximately 141-211 kg, with an average of 184.5 kg. The daily harvest per person is 1.3-2.0 kg, with an average of 1.86 kg.
[0055] Comparative Example 1 used Ezhi No. 8, Miracle and Alposana as olive seedlings for planting. The growth ability of the above varieties of olive seedlings is not as good as that of Laixing, Chenggu and Pixiaoli, so the harvest is lower than that of Example 1.
[0056] Comparative Example 2
[0057] A method for intensive olive planting similar to Example 1, the difference being: different row spacing.
[0058] (1) Site selection: The operation is carried out according to step (1) of Example 1.
[0059] (2) Olive seedling selection: The operation is carried out according to step (2) of Example 1.
[0060] (3) Olive seedling transplantation: The operation is carried out in accordance with step (3) of Example 1, except that the spacing between rows is 2-3m and 1000-1600 plants are planted per mu.
[0061] (4) Field management: The operation shall be carried out in accordance with step (4) of Example 1.
[0062] (5) Shaping and pruning: The operation is carried out according to step (5) of Example 1.
[0063] (6) Harvesting: Harvesting begins in April and May each year. The yield reaches its peak three years after the tea garden is established. The yield per mu (unit of land area) can reach 17.3-21.6 kg per harvest, with an average of 19.6 kg per two harvests. Harvesting is carried out every 10 days during the harvest season. The yield per mu in a single harvest season is approximately 155-194 kg, with an average of 176.4 kg. The daily harvest per person is 2.3-2.6 kg, with an average of 2.45 kg.
[0064] Comparative Example 2 limits the row spacing to 2-3m, which is 1-2m more than Example 1. The number of plants per mu is reduced, resulting in a lower tea picking yield per tea picking season than Example 1.
[0065] Comparative Example 3
[0066] (1) Site Selection: Fotanggou, Hanwang Town, Wudu District, Longnan City, Gansu Province was selected as the planting site. The soil is slightly alkaline calcareous soil with a deep soil layer and good permeability. Land preparation began one year before planting. During land preparation, base fertilizer was applied, mainly organic fertilizer, supplemented with phosphate and potassium fertilizer. 2.5 tons of organic fertilizer per mu (calculated as P2O5), 12 kg of phosphate fertilizer per mu (calculated as K2O), and 18 kg of potassium fertilizer per mu (calculated as K2O). Fertilization was carried out one year before transplanting, with fertilizer applied to the ground layer and then deeply tilled to a depth of 30-40 cm to incorporate the fertilizer into the soil. Irrigation pipes were laid in advance in the orchard, with drip irrigation being the preferred method.
[0067] (2) Olive seedling selection: The operation is carried out according to step (2) of Example 1, except that the seedling height is about 60-170cm.
[0068] (3) Olive seedling transplanting: Planting is carried out in February. Before planting, dig planting pits with a spacing of 4m×5m and plant 26 seedlings per mu. After planting, irrigate with water to help the roots settle.
[0069] (4) Field Management: After planting, pay attention to moisture retention, supplement irrigation according to soil conditions, and loosen the soil and remove weeds periodically to maintain orchard hygiene and prevent pest and disease infection. Two to three years after planting, deep plow the land every spring to a depth of 20 to 30 cm. Apply the leaf analysis method to guide scientific fertilization, calculate the amount of fertilizer based on the target yield, and determine the fertilization method. Taking urea as an example, the amount of nitrogen fertilizer per plant per year is 250g to 350g; taking calcium phosphate as an example, the amount of phosphate fertilizer per plant is 132g every two years; taking KCl as an example, the amount of potassium fertilizer per plant is 581g every two years. In addition, organic fertilizer is added, which is beneficial for supplementing other trace elements, increasing soil organic matter, and improving soil structure. Irrigation time is in mid-to-late December, late February, late May, late July, and early August.
[0070] (5) Shaping and pruning: The pruning principle is scientific pruning and three-dimensional fruiting. The goal of pruning young trees is to cultivate the main trunk and branches to form a reasonable crown structure. After 5 to 10 years of planting, olive trees begin to bear fruit. The pruning of these trees aims to regulate the nutritional balance and control the relationship between growth and fruiting, with the main purpose of promoting more fruit. Pruning is usually carried out during the dormant period after fruit harvest, and is done every 1 to 3 years.
[0071] (6) Harvesting: The ultimate goal of planting olive seedlings of this type is to produce fruit. The average trunk height is 3-4m. The harvesting time is from mid-March to mid-April. It is not advisable to harvest after the olive flower buds have formed, as this will affect the amount of olives on the tree. In addition, due to the tall size of the trees, people need to climb the trees or use ladders to harvest the fruit. The yield of tender buds from one tree is about 0.05-0.13kg, and the yield per mu is about 2-4kg. The daily harvest per person is 0.3-0.6kg, with an average harvest of 0.45kg.
[0072] Comparative Example 3 uses traditional olive cultivation methods, with the aim of producing fruit. The trees are quite tall, which is not conducive to harvesting.
[0073] In summary, this invention employs a dense planting method that does not affect the fruiting of the olive trees themselves. In terms of management, it focuses on promoting the growth of branches and leaves, which can increase the yield of olive buds. Furthermore, the use of tea ridge planting method is more conducive to harvesting and greatly increases the harvesting rate. The selection of special tree species results in more uniform bud shapes and higher quality olive tea after processing.
[0074] Although the above embodiments have provided a detailed description of the present invention, they are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. People can obtain other embodiments based on these embodiments without creative effort, and these embodiments all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
