description The olive tree has expanded to several countries because of its easy adaptation to difficult edapho-climatic zones and  high culinary and medicinal interest given the physicochemical composition of its fruit, including Argentina, Chile, Peru and Mexico, which have similar soil and climate conditions to the Mediterranean, where the phenological stages correspond to  clearly distinct climatic seasons. However, in the Alto Ricaurte region in Boyaca, Colombia, olives do not set because of the tropical climate conditions. Because of these characteristics, the behavior of some trees, sown 4 to 30 years ago in this region, were evaluated. The temperature and precipitation were measured, and 20 branches were selected per tree, which were monitored from appearance until development; the polar and equatorial diameter of the fruits were measured until reaching maturation. A fruit and oil analysis was carried out with olives harvested in two maturation states in 2017. The temperature had a positive correlation with the phenological stages in a range of 11 to 29°C, which directly influenced the development of inflorescences and their performance. In the same year, there were two or more blooms with different intervals, where the same branch had inflorescences, flowers, freshly filled fruits and other mature fruits. As for the characteristics of the fruit and the oil, it was evident that the content of fatty acids was within the parameters required by the International Olive Council.

The temperature and precipitation were measured, and 20 branches were selected per tree, which were monitored from appearance until development; the polar and equatorial diameter of the fruits were measured until reaching maturation. A fruit and oil analysis was carried out with olives harvested in two maturation states in 2017. The temperature had a positive correlation with the phenological stages in a range of 11 to 29°C, which directly influenced the development of inflorescences and their performance. In the same year, there were two or more blooms with different intervals, where the same branch had inflorescences, flowers, freshly filled fruits and other mature fruits. As for the characteristics of the fruit and the oil, it was evident that the content of fatty acids was within the parameters required by the International Olive Council. El olivo por su fácil adaptación a zonas edafoclimáticas difíciles, así como por el interés gastronómico, medicinal, y dada la composición bromatológica del fruto, se expandió por diferentes países como Argentina, Chile, Perú y México, que tienen condiciones de suelo y clima similares al Mediterráneo, donde sus estados fenológicos coinciden con las estaciones climáticas que son bien marcadas, a diferencia de lo que ocurre en el Alto Ricaurte Boyacá -Colombia, que por las condiciones del clima tropical, no le permiten estacionarse. Debido a estas características se evaluó el comportamiento  de árboles de 4 y 30 años sembrados en esta región, donde se midió la temperatura y precipitación además de seleccionar 20 ramas por árbol, a las que se le hizo seguimiento desde el momento de la emergencia hasta su desarrollo; a los frutos se les midió el diámetro polar y ecuatorial hasta llegar a maduración, en cuento a los análisis de frutos y aceite se hizo una comparación con aceitunas cosechadas en dos estados de maduración y aceite del 2017. Arrojando como resultado que la temperatura tiene una correlación positiva sobre los estados fenológicos ya que a rangos de 11 y 29°C influyen directamente en el desarrollo de las inflorescencias y su comportamiento, además durante el año se presentan dos o más floraciones con intervalos de tiempo diverso donde se observó que en la misma rama existían inflorescencias, flores, frutos recién cuajados y otros maduros. En cuanto a las características del fruto y el aceite se evidencia que el contenido de ácidos grasos se encuentra dentro de los parámetros exigidos por el Consejo Oleícola Internacional (COI).
