New development opportunities for the craft brewing segment: the case study of a micro-malthouse

2017

In Italy in the past few years, the number of small breweries penetrating the craft beer sector has grown exponentially. Craft producers intend to give a strong added value and a local character to their production in different ways. One of these is the use of malt derived from small batches of local cereals and pseudo cereals. The aim of this study is the assessment of investment profitability, through a cost-benefit analysis (CBA), for a compact and a modular micro-malting plant in Sicily (Southern Italy). The CBA for a micro-malthouse was carried out considering both installation and operating costs. Net present value (NPV), discounted benefit-cost ratio (DBCR) and internal rate of retur…

Rendere sensibile, rendere visibile. Le pratiche artistiche tra confini territoriali e disciplinari

2017

Ripensare oggi un futuro per le aree interne significa in primo luogo decostruire l’idea di perifericità e di marginalità cui esse hanno rimandato per un lungo periodo (Decandia, 2016). Una decostuzione che si compie adottando un nuovo sguardo, un ripensamento creativo e generativo dei territori in cui linguaggi sensibili e razionalità estetiche agiscono come dispositivi di trasformazione. Molte di queste aree sono oggi l’incubazione di un rigoglioso sottobosco in azione, terreni in cui pratiche artistiche e culturali agiscono facendo della perifericità il fulcro della sperimentazione. Attraverso l’arte contemporanea queste pratiche incidono nei territori innescando dei processi critici di …

The contribution of geographical certification programs to farm income and rural economies: The case of Pecorino Siciliano PDO

2021

This study attempts to measure the capacity of the EU geographical certification scheme to positively influence the price of certified products and the incomes of their producers. A comparison of the economic results of two cheese-producing dairy farm enterprises with different business strategies and locations within the Sicilian hinterlands is performed in order to determine the transformation value of each dairy’s sheep milk into pecorino cheese (with and without the Protected Designation of Origin, or PDO, certification) and the related joint products (ricotta). The economic convenience of the total transformation of sheep milk into Pecorino Siciliano PDO and ricotta is also appraised. …

Agriculture and tourism: economic evaluation of sustainable land management

2022

The ways in which the agricultural landscape has been used and managed by man has resulted in substantial changes over time in relation to the economic changes and social needs of local communities. In recent times, thanks to the multifunctional vision of agriculture, growing interest has focused on the recreational aspects of the landscape as a function of its usability. This interest derives both from its importance, highlighted by numerous studies on this aspect, and from its link with rural tourism. The latter phenomenon is growing rapidly and is capable of triggering important processes of development and local growth. In this context, the present study highlights some preliminary cons…

LE AREE INTERNE PER LO SVILUPPO DEL TERRITORIO E LA COMPLEMENTARITÀ DI PROGRAMMI E STRUMENTI FRA LE POLITICHE EUROPEE DI SVILUPPO RURALE E DI COESIONE

Le Aree Interne rappresentano un tema particolarmente importante per la programmazione e la spesa dei fondi comunitari nel periodo 2014-2020 perché costituiscono il più grande esempio di complementarità fra le Politiche europee di sviluppo rurale e di coesione. Per lo sviluppo di queste Aree è stata creata una Strategia Nazionale per le Aree Interne (SNAI) che mira alla valorizzazione ed al recupero di tutti quei territori (rurali, montuosi, svantaggiati) dal carattere marginale rispetto alla disponibilità e all’offerta di servizi essenziali. La peculiarità di tale Strategia è quella di promuovere lo sviluppo di aree che sono uniformemente distribuite in tutto il comprensorio nazionale a di…
