Italiaanse boeren doen voorstel anti-fraudezegel voor olijfolie
The Italian Farmers Confederation (CIA), the National Consortium of Olive Growers (CNO) and the State Mint and Polygraphic Institute (IPZS) launched an anti-fraud label to certify 100% Italian extra virgin olive oil.
The new labelling system, consisting of a numbered seal with a QR code located on the neck of the bottle, is intended to defend ‘Made in Italy’ production from fraud which is estimated to cost the olive oil industry €1.5 billion per year. The trade associations and the State Mint are now waiting for the Ministry of Agricultural, Food and Forestry Policies and the Ministry of Economy and Finance to officially validate the label (Olive Oil Times, 18 februari 2016).
