Vivai Formica Pietro Tindaro, based in Milazzo, operates on a area of approximately nine hectares,\u00a0 two of which is in screenhouses. The business has its roots in vine nursery production, initiated by\u00a0 great-grandfather Giovanni at the beginning of the last century. Later, thanks to grandfather Pietro,\u00a0 the nursery activity was expanded to include the cultivation of olive and citrus trees.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Since 2006, Agronomist Dr. Pietro has taken over the management of the family business, introducing new techniques aimed at product and process innovation. Today, <\/span>Vivai Formica Pietro <\/span><\/i>produces citrus\u00a0 trees, olive trees, and both grafted and ungrafted vine rootstocks. The production serves both\u00a0 industrial and ornamental markets and boasts an annual output of over 200,000 plants.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

All plants are propagated using advanced techniques that ensure varietal diversity, with propagation\u00a0 material sourced from the company\u2019s own extensive mother plant fields. Since 2014, alongside\u00a0 traditional propagation techniques such as cuttings and grafting, the nursery has adopted in vitro\u00a0 propagation (micropropagation), establishing an in-house laboratory. This facility is also equipped to\u00a0 test all plants for common bacterial, fungal, and viral diseases.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As of December 24, 2020, the company began the process of conversion to organic farming under\u00a0 the certification body <\/span>Suolo e Salute<\/span><\/i>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
