Traditional and intensive planting systems have paved the way for phenomenon of intensification, with super high-density (SHD) system being most prominent. This has demonstrated high levels profitability due to both reduction in production costs achieved through complete mechanization a significant increase olive oil per hectare, stemming from more efficient utilization resources such as light, water, nutrients. The aim this study was evaluate, vocated olive-growing area, phytosanitary status SHD orchard compared traditional one (TRD). research focused on six key pests, considering interaction between eight cultivars semi-arid environment. comparative analysis pest infestations across two revealed complex patterns population distribution intensity. Overall, appeared be main factor influencing dynamics. exhibited highest infestation Otiorhynchus cribricollis, Palpita unionalis, Bactrocera oleae.

These findings underscore potential developing sustainable effective management strategies tailored specific systems. Furthermore, results contribute advancing eco-friendly control approaches improving practices. Additional will necessary deepen understanding these pests their interactions within different
