Two million people visited 'Coldiretti Village' in Rome

(ANSA) - ROME, OCT 15 - Around two million people visited the Villaggio Coldiretti (Coldiretti Village) event at Rome's Circus Maximus, which has been showcasing the excellence of Italian agriculture over the last three days, organizers said on Sunday.
    Premier Giorgia Meloni was among them, as she visited the event organized by farmers' association Coldiretti on Saturday.
    "The Coldiretti Village was a great opportunity to raise awareness about the biodiversity and sustainability of Italian agriculture, in particular Lazio's agriculture, a model based on the distinctiveness and quality of Italian agri-food, the entrepreneurial spirit of young farmers and cutting-edge innovation," said Coldiretti President Ettore Prandini.
    "Citizens were able to see first-hand the best of Italian agriculture, which we must now defend and support amid the crisis triggered by war and price increases, as well as by wrong and dangerous models of food production, such as the spread of synthetic food" (ANSA).
