There are many underutilized and abandoned lands. Currently the land destined for cereal growing (wheat, barley, oats and corn) amounts to 2,950 Giovani in Campo 2/3 https://www.innovarurale.it/pei-agri/gruppi-operativi/bancadati-go-pei/giovani-campo Ha (they are located in the municipalities of Oliveto C., Palomonte, Colliano and Contursi T.) and represent about 20% of the entire cereal area of the province of Salerno. There are no large grain companies but the cultivation of wheat is practiced by many companies, some of which grow wheat using directly selected seed. There are still many companies that produce wheat for self- consumption. In the province of Salerno, at the beginning of the 1900s, numerous local ecotypes were cultivated, each adapted to the particular soil and climatic conditions of the cultivation area. These "ancient" varieties, in an organic cultivation system, have recently shown to have a competitive yield with modern varieties, due to the willingness of consumers to pay a higher price for healthy products. These productions have in fact been shown to produce significant beneficial effects, such as reduced development of allergies (such as celiac disease) and reduction of chronic cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and cancer, (source Sofi et al, 2010) for products made from whole wheat due to the presence , in wheat kernels, of different classes of phytochemical compounds, such as fibers and antioxidants (phenolic acids, flavonoids). According to the 2017 ISMEA-SVIMEZ REPORT, southern agriculture is the youngest in Italy and reversing the trend has become attractive to young people. In the overall data of the South, Campania is still struggling, but it has a potential for young people who are still waiting to show their value.
