The Iblea Round

The agricultural company “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 lots of land, once ancient estates, belonging to the Prince Biscari (C.da Pirrera-Dirillo Agro di Acate) and the Marchesa Condorelli (C.da Ragoleti Agro di Licodia Eubea). The previous company production focused on different types of products, from livestock breeding to the cultivation of open-field vegetables. The layout of these two important business units was based on the transhumance of the animals, which spent the two seasons on different lands based on their climatic needs.

Respect the territory

It does not have intensive practices, it uses organic methods for the management of its agricultural practices. It is committed to a path of sustainability.

Professionalism

A small business, yes, but with a great desire to grow and dedicate itself completely to what it does best: farming. With its work it is the guardian of local values and heritage.
