Narrative Label
Already known in ancient times, soft wheat was one of the first plants to be regularly grown by sedentary populations. It is an autumn-spring cereal, grown in Italy in accordance with organic farming regulations.
In terms of crop rotation, this cereal is generally inserted in rotation with legumes and cruciferous vegetables in order to add to the organic substances in the soil, boosting its fertility. Organic fertilisers are mainly used in the pre-sowing phase to heighten the properties of the soil, if necessary. The methods used to limit the development of weeds are false sowing and subsequent mechanical weeding by harrowing.
The whole wheat biscuits are a source of phosphorus, magnesium, copper and zinc. Phosphorus helps us to maintain healthy teeth and bones. Magnesium helps to ward off tiredness and fatigue. Copper contributes to ensuring normal nervous system function and energy metabolism. Lastly, zinc helps to regulate the metabolism of carbohydrates and ensure the immune system functions properly. A varied and balanced diet is very important, as part of a healthy lifestyle.
