Their role in the Planet O-live project is twofold: on the one hand, they connect Costa d’Oro with the most cutting-edge olive growers who can make a difference for pilot projects and with the prospect of informing their network of a total of about 80,000 olive enterprises; on the other hand, they represent the lobby of olive growers and academics and can collect their demands and bring them to institutional venues.
Confagricoltura’s wine and olive sector manager Palma Esposito, and Assoprol Umbria’s director Dr.Gianfrancesco Petroni are also actively contributing to Planet O-live.
