Agriculture of Italy has this structure:
The Population ensure food products of own production by 75%, the remaining 25% covered by imports from neighbouring European countries. Agriculture Italy is represented mainly by small farms, the average area of which is 7 hectares. it employs a total of 6% of the population.

Among agricultural land arable land of Italy is 35%, meadows and pastures - 19-20%, olive groves, orchards and vineyards - 11%.
To the North is the Po plain. Here are fertile lands, which are cultivated sugar beet, soybean, cereals, maize and rice. In rice yield Italy is second in the world after China.

Agriculture of Italy the South is mostly represented by small private farms specializing in the cultivation of citrus - orange, tangerine and lemons. Here grow pomegranates, olives and olives. Due to the mountainous terrain often manual labor is used.
The Grape is grown in Italy everywhere. Almost the entire crop is processed into wine.

Livestock in the country is weak. Mostly they are engaged in petty traders, livestock in each farm is small.
Cattle Grazing is mostly carried out in the Alpine meadows. For livestock feed are grown on the fields of legumes and industrial crops.
Italy is a member of the common market of Europe in a contractual relationship. This reduces the potential of local agriculture. Reduce the acreage of natural leads to a decrease in production volumes. To Italy increased their imports of European Union wheat, rye, meat, dairy products and eggs, which competes with local products.
Agriculture of Italy traditionally specializiruetsya on the cultivation of citrus, Mediterranean fruits and vegetables. However, in the framework of the common market the country barely managed to defend the lead in the industry. Loss of superiority in this sector would not only lead to a crisis in agriculture, but also hit the economy of Italy in General.
The Country has mountainous and hilly terrain. This makes it impossible to use in many fields of technology, therefore we will use the ineffective and costly manual labor.
