Olive oil production is the main activity of Mediterranean countries. Olive oil production is a new emerging sector in India. Olive oil refinery, Lunkaransar has been producing olive oil since 2015. After oil extraction, huge amount of waste is generated-Olive mill waste water and olive mill solid waste. These wastes are dumped in soil which affects soil environment. Olive oil waste main component is total organic carbon. In our research paper organic carbon of olive mill waste effects on soil properties are evaluated. Soil parameters such as pH, EC, Bulk Density, water holding capacity and TOC are analysed. The present study aimed to statistical Analysis of soil parameters showed that soil properties pH, bulk density was reduced and water holding capacity was increased. Olive mill waste improved soil quality but it also contaminated organic carbon in soil. Our research study provides an idea to recycle olive mill solid waste as an organic fertiliser or making compost to manage olive mill waste disposal.
