"more seeds are necessary to ensure reproduction" Looking at other fruits grown in similar climate (mediterranean) http://www.hort.purdue.edu/newcrop/proceedings1996/V3-416.html http://www.hort.purdue.edu/newcrop/proceedings1996/V3-416.ht... it seems to me that the number of seeds and aridness of the climate are not related: olive (1 seed); Mandarin (12?).
