The olive groves of the comarca are covered by the Protected Designation of Origin Aceite Sierra del Moncayo, created in 2010, whose regulatory council is based in Magallón and which extends across the comarcas of Tarazona and the Moncayo and the Campo de Borja, in the west of the province of Zaragoza. It brings together some 2,500 small olive growers spread across 35 municipalities, with more than 2,500 hectares of olive groves and an average annual production of more than four million kilos of olives. It works mainly with the empeltre and arbequina varieties, with a minority presence of negral, royal and verdial. Ainzón is home to industry bodies and oil mills that bottle the region's oil.
