About us

Our values: innovation and sustainability

We are an agricultural producers’ organization founded in 2012 with the goal of creating a sustainable, efficient, and people-centered model.
Today, our cooperative coordinates a network of producers active on over 2,500 hectares across Puglia, Basilicata, Molise, Lazio, and Tuscany, combining expertise, innovation, and collaboration among members and cooperatives.
We collaborate with 20 direct members and two major cooperatives with 143 associated producers — a vibrant, skilled, and dynamic agricultural community.

Agriculture 4.0: predictive models for new efficiency

In collaboration with the University of Naples Federico II, we are launching a multi-year innovation project (2025–2027) dedicated to the digital transformation of sustainable agriculture.

The initiative integrates next-generation DSS systems to optimize irrigation through evapotranspiration models, predict the onset of major crop diseases, and advancedly monitor CO₂ emissions throughout the entire supply chain.

Through the development of predictive models, agronomic protocols, and real-time monitoring tools, the project aims to improve resource efficiency, reduce environmental impact, and concretely support agricultural enterprises in adopting more sustainable and high technological value practices.

This collaboration represents a decisive step toward a smarter, more resilient, and future-oriented agriculture.
