A new rice culture
With the new SP Riseria Italian production lines, and in conjunction with local partners (industrial players and master craftsmen, artisans in their field) a new pathway to sustainability was launched to support the cultivation and culture of local rice, but not solely agricultural rice. A new approach to rice cultivation that is no longer focusing solely on the commercial proposition of rice as a simple cooking commodity, but rather on rice as something which, thanks to its organoleptic properties, is also the ideal base for vinegar, beer, and spirits, not forgetting rice oil, rich in Omega 3.
