Indicators of Project Success
Improved yield
Improved income
Morocco: Income increase by US$700-1500/ha
Syria: Income increase by US$800-1000/ha
Improved quality of oil, quality of fruit
400 farmers made aware of the benefits
Oil analysis
Taste panel – farmers, consumers, merchants
After 5 years, 7-10% of the area suitable for drip irrigation to cultivate olives will be converted from conventional irrigation method to drip

Progress Against Indicators
Syria (2010-2014): Sorani cv.
Yields increased by 78% (from 4,816 kg/ha under rainfed treatment to 8,586 kg/ha under 50% CWR treatment) when 142 mm of irrigation was applied (in addition to 416 mm rainfall) by drip system;
A further increase of 1,734 kg/ha (20%) was achieved by applying additional 142 mm of irrigation (100% CWR) in addition to the rainfall

Progress Against Indicators
Morocco (2010-2014)
Yields increased by 30% (from 4,527 kg/ha under flood treatment to 5,900 kg/ha under 100% ETc treatment) and water application was reduced by 48% (901 mm vs. 469 mm);
A further saving of 28% water (469 mm vs. 229 mm) was achieved by switching from 100% ETc to 70% Etc. There was a 1.3% yield increase as well (5,900 kg/ha vs. 5,980 kg/ha)
