The importance of olive groves for biodiversity conservation

Do you know what “biodiversity” is? That is the first question we have to ask ourselves to understand why it is so important to talk about it. With this word, we refer to the group of plants and animals that live in a specific area thanks to the conditions it provides, allowing these species to develop easily in an environment that is ideal for them.
