South Tyrolean Apple PGI : ウィキペディア英語版 | South Tyrolean Apple PGI
The trademark South Tyrolean Apple PGI is used for apples which are cultivated in South Tyrol in a traditional manner. South Tyrol is Europe's largest connected fruit-growing region. Since 2005, eleven of the more than one dozen different apple varieties have been awarded the "Protected Geographical Indication" (PGI) seal by the EU and are recognised across the EU as regional specialities. The trademark ''South Tyrolean Apple PGI'' is used by all of South Tyrol's marketing companies for export. == History == The first apple trees evolved in Kazakhstan in central Asia. The apples reached the Greeks via the Silk Road and were finally brought to South Tyrol with the Roman conquests. In the Middle Ages the cultivation of apples was practised mainly in monasteries. They preserved the varieties of apple and knowledge of fruit-growing. For many hundreds of years apple trees were planted around the farmstead for the use of the farmer's family. At this time the South Tyrolean Apple was already being exported north across the alpine passes. The construction of a railway line through the Brenner Pass in 1867 facilitated the export of apples. From 1880 – 1890 South Tyrolean fruit farmers drained water from the bottom of the valley by controlling the River Etsch/Adige and in so doing gained useful cultivation land. The first fruit cooperatives were established at the end of the 19th century. Since then apple cultivation has been of major importance in South Tyrol.
