The main cultivation area of rice is Asia, especially China, India and large parts of South East Asia. Northern Italy and all other Southern European countries produce rise as well as the USA and South American countries.
One of our long-term partners in organic food ingredients is the family rice mill Riseria Provera in Italy. The long tradtion of rice cultivation and processing in the Piemont area of Italy has been upheld by the family in the fourth generation. Being a pioneer in organic rice farming, Riseria provera has been contract partner for small-scale organic farmers in the regions of Vercelli, Biella, Novara and Pavia and represents both, highest rice qualities and organic transparency from farm to fork – secluded from other large areas of conventional and industrialized rice farming. The related farming areas have traditionally been planted in organic method. No wonder, the growing areas of the Provera projects have developped to a natural reserve where otherwise threatened herons have found a breeding site. Organic rice farming goes together with the protection of our endangered biodiversity as this example can illustrate.
