The time has come to harvest “Fish Friendly” rice! During the third week of July, <\/span>some rice paddies in the Lower Ferrarese region have seen the release of millions of young fish into their waters-more than 2,500 fry per hectare. <\/b>This is an ancient technique, also used in the East, but had been abandoned in Italy and in recent years rediscovered. The release of small fish-in the Lower Ferrara region, these are carp and tench-helps develop the ideal ecosystem for rice fields. The fry, in fact, <\/span>feed on insect larvae that are potentially harmful <\/b>for the rice plant and <\/span>with their droppings act as natural fertilizers.<\/b> Their presence participates<\/b>, therefore, <\/span>in the development of the ideal environment for rice cultivation and the preservation of the biodiversity typical of rice fields.<\/b><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Fry feeding is one of the most important steps in the production of arborio rice dedicated to the “Fish Friendly” selection and <\/span>is part of the initiatives that concretize the collaboration between Filiera Agricola Italiana and LIDL<\/b>: a partnership under the banner of environmental and social sustainability, which aims to offer consumers quality products while guaranteeing<\/span> transparency, traceability and ethics. <\/span><\/p>\n

Launched<\/span><\/a> last May, the “Fish Friendly” arborio rice is among the <\/span>More than 40 items bearing the seal “FDAI – Signed By Italian Farmers”<\/b> present, to date, in the continuous and promotional assortment offered by LIDL stores. <\/span>The line is characterized by the use of quality, Italian and 100% traceable raw materials<\/b>, <\/span>for the high standards of transparency and ethics and the fair distribution of value that distinguishes the entire supply chain.<\/b><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

On the occasion of the launch of the “Fish Friendly” arborio rice, Alessia Bonifazi, communications & CSR manager of Lidl Italy<\/strong>, has <\/span>
\n commented<\/span>
\n<\/a>: “The collaboration with Filiera Agricola Italiana is extremely important to us because it allows us to concretize our commitment to making the assortment of our stores more responsible<\/strong>. The value asset we share with Filiera Agricola Italiana<\/strong>, based on respect for our country’s agricultural vocation and the distribution of value throughout the production chain, makes us particularly proud of this collaboration, which<\/span> represents a virtuous model between farmers and distributors.”<\/b><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
