Carota dell'Altopiano del Fucino

The Carota dell'Altopiano del Fucino PGI is an agricultural food denomination geographically anchored to a strict zone of twelve municipalities within the Abruzzo region, including Aielli, Avezzano, and Celano. Recognized by the European Union since 2003, this carrot's identity is legally tied to this specific cluster of territories. What distinguishes this particular denomination in official agricultural registries is its current record of zero verified producers, creating a unique administrative profile compared to other active Italian crops. This strict territorial boundary ensures that only carrots harvested within these precise municipal borders qualify for the protected geographical indication.
