Carciofo di Paestum
Food · PGI · 14 municipalities
Unlike neighboring Campania denominations that boast active certified supply chains, the Carciofo di Paestum IGP presents a unique regulatory status: despite being officially recognized by the European Union since 2002, the denomination currently registers zero verified producers. Its defined cultivation zone is strictly limited to fourteen specific municipalities in Campania, including Agropoli and Battipaglia. This precise geographical boundary ensures that any commercial cultivation under the Consorzio di Tutela del Carciofo di Paestum IGP remains tethered exclusively to these designated administrative areas, separating its identity from similar artichokes grown in broader regional territories.
