Meeting between the Executive Director of the IOC and the Spanish Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food

MADRID, SPAIN / 13.09.2023

The Executive Director of the International Olive Council (IOC), Abdellatif Ghedira, met with the Spanish Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, Luis Planas, on Monday 11 September 2023 at the Ministry’s headquarters. The Executive Director was accompanied by Jaime Lillo, current IOC Deputy Director and future Executive Director as of January 2024.

The meeting addressed various issues related to the situation of the olive oil sector, both in Spain and worldwide. The IOC also had the opportunity to present to the Minister Luis Planas the international workshop that the Organisation will be organising on 17 October: “Carbon balance of the olive sector: part of the solution to climate change”. The workshop, which will count on the support of the Spanish Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, as well as the participation of numerous international experts, will analyse the important role of the olive grove in contributing to the fight against climate change.

The IOC representatives and Minister Luis Planas took this opportunity to reinforce and reaffirm the close collaboration between the intergovernmental agency and the Government of the Kingdom of Spain.
