Sponsored by the Italian Milling Industry Association (ITALMOPA) and co-funded by the EU, this project champions the quality, versatility and eco-friendly nature of Italian and EU organic soft and durum wheat flour and organic semolina flour. They're milled from pesticide-free grain and grown in soil that is fertilized only by natural substances.
The effort seeks to increase awareness and exports to Canada and the U.S.—key markets for organic products-- and is already showing gains. Within its first year, exports have risen approximately 150 percent in organic flour and 60 percent in semolina exports to Canada and the U.S.
