THE HISTORY
The farm “Terre sul Dirillo Società Agricola” was founded in 2011 by two young Iblei entrepreneurs, who decided to operate on two quality factors: the territory and agricultural production. Terre sul Dirillo was born to give continuity to the family business tradition, founded by the paternal great-great-grandfather Carmelo Ravalli, who had purchased between 1934 and 1947 several plots of land, once ancient estates, which belonged to Prince Biscari (C.da Pirrera- Dirillo Agro di Acate) and the Marchesa Condorelli (C.da Ragoleti Agro di Licodia Eubea). The company's previous production focused on different types of products, from cattle breeding to the cultivation of open field vegetables. two important business units was based on the transhumance of animals, which spent the two seasons in different terrains according to their climatic needs.
The land is lapped by the waters of the Dirillo river, once navigable. Along the river, there were ancient “trazzere ” (country roads), about 50 km, which were traveled at least twice a year in order to moving the animals between the different company units. In more recent times, the breeding was abandoned and subsequently the company passed to the daughters Lilly, Odetta and Maria. The company, already in this new company conformation, it was composed of a productive nucleus of oil and table olives, and by the alternation of artichoke and wheat. Today, the main activity is the exclusive cultivation of the olive tree. Terre sul Dirillo, currently in organic farming, owns almost 4,000 olive trees, between secular and newly planted.
