The international scenarios that have found consolidation over the last year and which, unfortunately, I fear will accompany us for a while longer, are characterised by the increase of military conflicts which do not concern and do not interest only the parties involved, but a much larger number of nations.
The resolution, at least of the major wars, will not be easy or quick and this will continue to have important repercussions on the world economies, through the slowdown in growth and the increase in inflation. Within this context, since the beginning of the year and especially in Europe, there have been organised farmers' protest movements: strikes and exemplary protests which aim at bringing to the attention of the media the problems of what should be one of the most strategic sectors for all economies. The imposition of national and supranational rules, rather than Community rules, applied to a sector that bases the roots of its success on its diversity of territory, climate conditions, history and culture, only consolidates an increasingly clearer gap between the productive and bureaucratic fabric. In general, the disagreement of the agri-food sector has started with some measures designed to make the entire food production more green and sustainable. But also against EU agricultural policies deemed too restrictive and against the attitude of traditional sector organisations. The farmers' protests highlight the challenges that the European agri-food sector is facing. On the one hand, there is the need to make agriculture more sustainable and respectful of the environment while on the other there is the need to protect farmers' income and the competitiveness of the sector. The agricultural sector has a strong impact on the environment: among the most critical elements, greenhouse gas emissions from livestock and the use of pesticides, which harms the biodiversity of the territory. The goal and the hope is that we can find a synthesis between all these aspects: only by doing so will we be able to keep alive a sector that is too important not only for our (Italian) economy but also for those of many other nations.

The relationship between food, culture and Italian identity abroad is often put to the test when it comes to reproducing our original recipes in contexts where authentic ingredients are lacking.
For Italians, cooking is not just a question of nourishment, but represents a fundamental element of our culture and national identity. So, if we already complain about the reinterpretations of our famous chefs, imagine how disconcerting it is when the real Made in Italy is distorted across borders, with unlikely versions presented as Italian dishes.
The question we ask ourselves is: is Italian cuisine interpreted faithfully or betrayed abroad? It's a question of hunger for authenticity in the name of gastronomic culture.
Many foreigners do not know our recipes in depth and, due to ignorance, inability or lack of au- thentic ingredients, reinterpret them in a distorted way. The authentic Italian ingredient, which makes the real difference, is often ignored or replaced.
The distortion of Italian cuisine is also confirmed by research by Coldiretti (the largest association representing and assisting Italian agriculture), according to which two out of three dishes served abroad as Italians are extravagant versions that have little to do with ours tradition. This practice, known as "agropiracy", generates a turnover of around 100 billion euros. To counter this trend and satisfy the growing demand for authenticity, Coldiretti has introduced a gastronomic identity card: the "ITA 0039 | 100% ItalianTaste" certification. It is important that chefs and restaurateurs who interpret Italian cuisine abroad have a deep understanding of Italian cuisine. Consumers also have a role to play in supporting authentic Italian cuisine abroad. Choosing restaurants that are committed to maintaining the authenticity and quality of Italian dishes can help preserve the reputation of Italian cuisine around the world. With the right respect for Italian gastronomic traditions and attention to the quality of ingredients, it is possible to ensure that Italian cuisine maintains prestige, reputation and taste everywhere in the world.
