Which country became 19th member of International Olive Council (IOC)?

  • A. Palestine
  • B. Georgia
  • C. Finland
  • D. Pakistan

Correct Answer: D. Pakistan

The council already has 18 members, mostly European and Middle Eastern nations in the Mediterranean region. Pakistan is now its nineteenth member, subsequent to the visit from the Executive Director of IOC, Abdul Latif Ghadira, last October, which was followed by a Pakistani delegation’s trip to the IOC’s headquarters in February. Pakistan currently has 3.6 million olive plants over an area of 31,000 acres of land, and it plans to grow more of them over 75,000 acres of land. According to Juan Vilar of Strategic Consultants, Pakistan is producing 1,500 tons of olive oil per year and 830 tons of table olives.
