Our environment

Génave is a small municipality in the province of Jaén, located to the north of the Sierra de Segura region. The municipality is part of the Natural Park of the Sierras de Cazorla, Segura and Las Villas, the largest protected space in Spain, whose environmental characteristics have been worth the recognition of the Biosphere Reserve.

The main resource of this region is the production of high quality olive oil and Génave stands out as a pioneer in the cultivation of the organic olive tree. The dominant variety in the production area is Picual, which is 97% of the area's olive groves. The trees are very vigorous, with somewhat short branches and with a tendency to produce ramifications in braces. Its fruits, from 2.5 to 3.5 grams, have an oil yield of 21 to 25%. It is a variety with good resistance to cryptogamic diseases, being very resistant to low temperatures.
