Agriculture

The hilly parts of the commune are planted with vines and fruit trees. The principle grape varieties are Arneis, Nebbiolo, Dolcetto and Barbera. A wide variety of fruit in grown, but of particular note is the local “Madernassa” pear, a variety which originated here in 1784 and is currently enjoying an expanding export market, being particularly popular in England. Towards the Tanaro, in Frazione Vaccheria the crops include tomatoes, peppers, garlic and cardoons.[3]
