The olive tree has always been associated with Umbria and the beauty of its landscapes, its traditional methods of production, its centuries-old religious and cultural traditions as well as with a healthy lifestyle. Olive oil and the extraordinary evocation of these messages will be promoted by the Umbria PDO Oil Consortium

Milan, 3-6 November 2015. Every day themed focuses on vineyard, wine, beer and oil. Simei proposes itself more and more as a platform of cross-cutting contents which accompanies and integrates the exhibition of the best technology in the sector               

The workshop devoted to building the “nests” that won the Nidificare i Paduli (i.e. Nesting in the Paduli park) contest was a truly unforgettable experience. Enclosed is a gallery of the pictures taken during those days.

Although too many variables are still in play, world olive oil production in 2015–2016 looks set to be higher than in 2014/15 but lower than in 2013/1

The collaboration of Accademia dei Georgofili and the Istituto Alberghiero of Assisi is the major asset of the first Italian full-immersion course in English

Two conferences sponsored by Oiv, Ceev and Fivs and international speakers to outline the sensory profile of the modern consumer. All this will be experienced at Simei 2015

The Conference will be held at the University of Algarve, Faro, Portugal, 17 - 19 March 2016
