Kilis Yağlıkolive, which is predominantly higher than the other olive varieties in theregion, is heavily cultivated. Due to the well-adaptation to the region andhigh yielding oil properties, the olive orchards in the region arecharacterized byKilisYağlik even thoughthe regions have almost no irrigation facilities in the cultivated areas. TheGemlik olive variety changed olive population pattern in the region due to itseasy reproduction, shorter juvenilitythan Kilis Yağlik and unconscious agricultural policies. Olive is usually grown for oil purposes. The olive production area is 280.432 decares, which is grown as 266.092 decares for oil and 14.340 decares as a tableolive. The share of olives in the vegetative production of Kilis province isapproximately 25%. There are 36 olive oil factories.
