It is exactly for this reason that a reliable recovery and relaunch project is needed, also in light of the ongoing COVID-19 emergency. We must no longer find ourselves in the position of having to repair and restore damages, regardless of their nature, but rather envisage a mechanism that is able to preserve our enterprises, our producers and their families while increasing productivity and competitiveness…..”
Stefano Patuanelli , Minister of agriculture food policy, forestry and tourism policies“…The world is changing fast. It is making a major turnaround in many areas. Plants are not a luxury anymore.
