Riso Goio 1929 is the DOP Rice from Baraggia Biellese and Vercellese in the Sant'Andrea variety. It is cultivated in Baraggia Biellese and Vercellese, the only DOP for rice in the world, which guarantees traceability and quality certification. It is grown with crop rotation: after two years of soy, rice is sown. This practice leaves the soil rich in natural nitrogen and free from weeds, limiting the use of herbicides and fertilizers. It is sown "dry" using the technique of buried row sowing, which reduces the use of water and pesticides. The plant grows healthier because the soil remains more oxygenated. Riso Goio reduces rice grain processing defects to nearly 0%, although the regulations allow up to 5%.
