BILANZOLA FRANCESCO

In Roseto degli Abruzzi, in the province of Teramo, Francesco Bilanzola raises livestock according to his sole denomination, Agnello del Centro Italia IGP, which covers 1,403 municipalities in central Italy. His animals go through distinct feeding phases, from mother's milk to open pasture, reaching the carcass categories—light, heavy, and castrated—stipulated by the rigorous standards of this geographical indication. The precise adherence to both geographical and production protocols integrates the farming into a system where every phase contributes to the final quality and where the origin remains verifiable step by step. Rooted in the Abruzzese pastoral landscape, Bilanzola's activity protects not only a product but a regional model of sheep farming, supporting its economic and cultural continuity. It is a supply chain where pasture management and certification remain inseparable, and shared rules become the very condition for the meat to bear the name of its territory.
