The diagram outlines the various steps involved in the production of olive oil. Overall, olive oil goes through seven stages before being packaged and released into the market. The process begins far from the industrial setting, with the olives being harvested directly from the trees. In the second step, the olives are rinsed with cold water before being placed on a conveyor belt connected to a smashing machine. This machine separates the olive paste from the olive stones, which are not needed for olive oil production. Next comes the pressing stage. The olive paste is, then, placed into perforated bags and crushed using a pressing machine. This process allows for the separation of oil from water. Finally, the oil is stored before it is ready to be sold. In conclusion, as shown in the diagram, the production of olive oil involves several stages—seven in total—and requires specific expertise.
