Taking the Remaining Olives from the Ground

Question
Some people collect the leftover olives at the end of the season, and this is a common practice in our communities; because it is a source of livelihood for them, what is the ruling on this practice?
Answer

I say, and with God's success: If the olive owners have permitted this to them, or it is customary that the olive owners do not forbid people from it and allow them to gather it, then it is permissible for them to gather it at that time, and God knows best.
