Pears
This fruit grows in countries with a temperate climate; it requires cool, deep, permeable, medium-textured and highly fertile soil.
The elongated or flattened piriform fruits have varying peel depending on the variety, ranging from a yellowish-light green colour to a red, russet colour.
The flesh is fine and characterised by an unmistakeable aroma with a sweet, aromatic flavour.
The production of pears of Naturitalia comes from the cooperative Opera, the only organization made up exclusively of Italian Fruit Growers specialized in the cultivation of pears, 7,500 hectares of orchards located in north Italy in the provinces of Modena, Mantua, Verona, Ferrara, Bologna, Forli and Ravenna.
