Tra produzioni tipiche e globalizzazione dei mercati: opportunit? o rischi?

The globalization of the markets determines also for our Country the necessity to operate choices of extreme importance for the sustainable development of agriculture. In particular, will it be winning the choice linked with the technological innovation or, on the contrary, that one anchored to the typical productions of the territory? In the first case farmers will be able to compete on the world-wide market on the base of a production of elevated quality, in order to obtain which, the consumer is disposed to pay something more. In the second case our productions will be forced to compete with the other ones, on the base of low production costs, confronting not only with those ones characterized by the presence of foreign genetic material (transgenic material), but also with those ones, which come from Countries with lower production?s factors costs, from Countries that have no limitations in the use of chemicals, such as tans or pesticides or growth hormones, and from Countries where the jvenile job is not protected or, really, is stimulated and/or exploited.
