Last week we were invited by "Confagricoltura" at the 119th edition of FieraCavalli in Verona. Confagricoltura Veneto has organized this year a stand where a study on the industry, conducted in collaboration with "CGIA" from Mestre, was presented. Confagricoltura President "Lodovico Giustiniani", together with the President of the "Ente Fiera" Maurizio Danese, and the President of Confagricoltura Verona "Paolo Ferrarese" welcomed for the occasion the undersecretary for Agriculture "Giuseppe Castiglione".  Giuseppe Castiglione sits on the European Parliament's Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development.

We filmed a brief overview of the Fair with particular attention to the conference that was held by Confagricoltura and the various contributions made by Giuseppe Castiglione, Lodovico Giustiniani, and The president of the Agricultural Commission for the Veneto Region "Sergio Berlato".

Goethe wrote, following studies conducted from 1719 to 1758 by Friedric Hoffmann and Sammuel Theodor Quelmalz from Lipsia, "...

We leave you now with this quick video press report from "Edoardo Comiotto" and we hope to see you all for the 120th edition in 2018 of Fiera Cavalli in Verona !!!
