Olive harvesting increasing but still below average
Ups and downs, sweet and sour for Italy’s olive oil production. The olive harvest has just started almost all over the peninsula. According to estimates by Coldiretti and the national Consortium of Olive growers, 2017 numbers should be higher than those of last year but below the average of the last decades. The survey conducted by the Consortium’s market observatory highlights a 50% increase for the 2017/2018 season, having estimated about 273thousand tons of oil compared to 182thousand tons in 2016/2017. But that was the worst year in the last 50. In fact, if we take a further step backwards, to 2015/2016, figures were decidedly higher, 474thousand tons, proving that final recovery in all regions is still far off. The blame, at least this year, lies with the bad drought that caused flowers to drop off and a reduced...

The production plant and site are back on the label
More information and improved traceability of products by watchdogs from April 2018 The legislative decree according to which the site of the production plant must be reported again on food labels was published on Italy’s Official Gazette on 7th October. A great victory for consumers and for all industrial and artisan companies that kept on reporting the information despite the fact that it was no longer mandatory since December 2014. Now users will be more aware of their choices, as they will be able to identify even the origin of the food packaged under the brand of big retailers or industrial groups. There will be considerable benefits also in terms of health and safety. Indeed, as reported in the decree, the changes aim at guaranteeing “correct and complete information for the consumer and the traceability of food by watchdogs,...

Food labels, a precious ally for consumers
Learning how to read nutritional information is important for our well-being It would be great to have your own vegetable garden, your own small livestock farm or to always rely on excellent producers with a fully transparent supply chain. But it is not always possible. This is why food labels are an essential tool for consumers, and learning to read them is crucial in order to choose food products that respect our health and to be able to make informed purchases. It is important to bear in mind that some of the information provided is mandatory and regulated by specific national or European laws, whereas other information is optional or complementary. Since the basic requirement of a food label is to inform the consumer about the actual characteristics of a product, any misleading qualitative or nutritional information is prohibited....
