The Coronavirus emergency has stopped almost all activities, except those considered essential and, among these, agriculture, which must also deal with the decreased consumer spending opportunities and, consequently, with the risk associated with the interruption of the excellent activities that cannot compete with the sales of the big chains.
Thanks to a project born in unsuspected times, called " Recupera Project ", Futures on EVO oil are extremely topical . The Oil Mill of Pierluigi Presciuttini di Montefiascone in the province of Viterbo offers to purchase today at extremely advantageous conditions the EVO oil of excellence obtained from the plants recovered from abandonment to then withdraw it during the milling season. How does it work? By applying a typically financial instrument such as FUTURES contracts to the purchase of goods and products. Through the union between those who produce and those who buy, we are protected from increases or speculations and we are already assuring the supply of the product. A fundamental aspect will be the absolute traceability and total reliability of the project, so that the EVO Oil of Excellence becomes a real asset. He will deal with this aspect through the Blockchain certification , the Innovative StartUp ABCLab of Pisa, as guarantor of the activities. Many restaurants are already using this formula, to take advantage of a dinner after the emergency (Dining Bond) as many other agricultural activities could do. Even the production of olive trees cannot be stopped! In Pescia the Spoolivi Company has fully embraced this philosophy, the grafts that are made now will be on the field in 3 years!
For several years in the Terre di Etruria, Pierluigi Presciuttini has been actively recovering thousands of olive trees from abandonment. Its history has been brought to the attention of the general public by important television broadcasts and by many newspapers. The mill has also been included in the Flos Olei 2020 guide among the best 500 companies in the world for olive oil production.
