SUPPORT TO FARMS AND BUSINESSES

Prior to the August 2016 earthquake, a circular economy supported the economic and productive activities of the Amatrice Valley. Periodic “cashflow injections” were limited to the arrival of tourists over the weekend or summertime (specifically in July and August) and from particular cultural and gastronomic events, such as the Spaghetti all’Amatriciana Festival and the footrace -Amatrice-Cofigno. These events increased the marketing of local products.
