Of the 356 hectares of herbaceous crops, all of which are under organic cultivation, the Cappelli variety durum wheat crops (started in 2016 with 10 hectares) and the spelt areas (50 hectares total of Triticum monococcum and Triticum turgidum SSP dicoccum) are worth mentioning. Four different formats of Cappelli pasta (the mille righe, vitoni, spaghettoni and spaghetti) dried at temperatures below 38°C to maintain the organoleptic characteristics of the raw material.
The entire production process of Banfi's organically grown durum wheat pasta is short chain: from the sowing of the land in Montalcino, to the milling of the wheat at the Molino Borgioli in Calenzano, to the artisanal processing and packaging at the historic Pastificio Fabbri.
