Production planning estimate
Plan around lb of olives
A starting estimate is 0.15 quarts of oil per lb of olives. Work back from how much you go through in a year to see how much that takes to make.

Planning note: Olives are crushed and pressed shortly after harvest. Home-scale pressing typically means a small manual or electric press.
