“With this decree – says Minister Lollobrigida – we are adding another element to further improve the quality of production and reduce the environmental impact. On the other hand, as demonstrated by the 225 million fund allocated in the budget law for innovation in agriculture, the Meloni government also has an eye to the future in the agricultural and agri-food sector. We continue to work in the direction of strengthening the Pnrr, with an approach away from ideological conditioning and instead close to the current needs of the nation", concludes the minister.
