3A – PTA has been operating for over 20 years to ensure the improvement and maintenance of the quality of agricultural and agri-food products. It is characterized by its high specialization and by the possibility of providing a wide range of services, directly – through 3A – or through the other operating companies.
In harmony with the programming and the guidelines identified by the regional, national and community legislator and as an operational tool of the Umbria Region, 3A – PTA proposes itself as a subject capable of summarizing the proposals and making them available to the agricultural and agri-food companies present on the market in the form of services:
quality certification, food safety and consumer protection
advanced training and innovative professional profiles
innovation and research for business support and technology transfer
definition of partnerships for international projects
information, marketing and promotion
3A-Umbria Agri-Food Technological Park was appointed by the Umbria Region to coordinate the activities of the “Biodiversity Conservation Service” in close technical-scientific collaboration with the Department of Applied Biology and the Department of Agronomic and Environmental Sciences of the Faculty of Agriculture of the University of Perugia.
The actions taken concern various areas of intervention:
prospecting and research campaigns in the area in order to identify new accessions of germplasm;
making the material safe by inserting it, according to the cases, in the various sections of the germplasm bank of the Umbria Region.
initiatives aimed both at the characterization and study of recovered varieties, and at their enhancement and promotion.
