This is interesting to me, because Spain and Italy are also exporters of olive oil. And there have been famous discoveries of fraud in the EVOO market as it has boomed. I wonder what percentage of Spanish and Italian EVOO exports are actually blended with (or wholly!) Tunisian imports?

Those numbers don't add up.
Tunisia is so productive it exports 123.4% of olive oil.
Or perhaps I don't understand what they're trying to say in that sentence
