Italy ColtivaItalia agricultural legislation
Overview
The Italian Senate has passed the ColtivaItalia bill, allocating approximately 1.18 billion euros to the agricultural sector. The funds, which are expected to become available in early 2027 pending the issuance of implementing decrees, are distributed across several key areas. These include 300 million euros each for strategic supply chains, the Allevamento Italia plan to reduce beef imports, and the National Olive Plan 2026–2030.
Additional allocations include 70 million euros for a food sovereignty fund to support sectors such as wheat and corn, and 150 million euros for entrepreneurship credit, specifically targeting women and young people through mortgages and grants. The legislation also establishes a special commissioner for Xylella until 2028, introduces mortgage moratoria for businesses affected by disease, and implements new protections and labeling requirements for ‘Made in Italy’ products.
To protect the landscape, the law prohibits the removal of DOP and IGP olive trees for photovoltaic or wind energy installations. It also establishes a municipal land bank to recover abandoned agricultural areas and provides support for mountain farming. Promoted by Agriculture Minister Francesco Lollobrigida, the plan utilizes advanced scientific tools, such as genomic and isotopic mapping, to verify product origins and combat counterfeiting.
