"Piedmont represents the finest expression of rice cultivation in Italy: the paddies stretching across the provinces of Vercelli and Novara create one of the most distinctive agricultural landscapes in the country, the result of centuries of skilful management of Alpine waters. It is here that some of the most prized varieties are produced, such as Carnaroli and Baldo, appreciated throughout the world."
