Olive Oil Spain is the world's number 1 producer of olive oil, mostly in the southern Andalusia region. But very dry weather there has ravaged olive trees. What affect will the poor weather have on the olive oil market?


Olive trees will not produce as large of a harvest due to the poor weather. This represents supply shift to the left and a movement up the demand curve. Prices rise and quantity falls.
