The company was born in 1932, when my grandfather and his brothers bought the first plot of land. This land was owned by a noble family, part of a latifundium, and like many of these lands, at a certain point, due to mala gestio on the part of the owners who either did not cultivate at all or lived far away or lost the land to gambling, it was bought by the farmers.

It was born as a pastoral farm; wheat was produced here, which was a very valuable commodity in those days. Livestock farming was extensive, consisting of Podolica, the indigenous breed of southern Italy, and flocks of sheep. And its function was to fertilise the land, it served the production of grain. The first big change was made by my father, transforming a pastoral farm into a modern livestock farm, going to buy Friesian cows (which have an excellent milk yield) all the way to Canada. It was he who planted the citrus groves, giving an entrepreneurial turn to the farm through intensive cultivation.

Now ours is a company with 5 million in agricultural turnover and another 5 million in energy turnover. We have a total of 420 hectares (of which 5 are planted with vegetables, herbs and spices; 45 with rice fields; 55 with citrus fruits; 16 with olive groves; 250 with fodder for livestock). We have 30 thousand goji plants, 700 thousand litres of processed milk per year. 80 thousand kg of cardoncelli mushrooms produced, 1.5 million kg of citrus fruits and 40 thousand kg of paddy rice.
