GARLIC CULTIVATION

Italy produces around 450,000 tons of garlic. The most important regions for this crop are Venetia, Emilia-Romagna, Latium, Campania, Sicily, Abruzzo, Molise and Tuscany.
The varieties differ in the duration of their vegetative cycle, but mainly by the color of the bulb, which may be white or purple. The white bulbs (the most prized and with the greatest market demand) include the Piacenza White and the Piedmont White, both highly productive.
