Rice of Baraggia
Biellese e Vercellese
Our story
The Goio family began its tradition in then field of rice thanks to the founder Ernesto who was born in 1903. In 1929, from the area of Novara he moved to Rovasenda where he gave life to the activity by renting the agricultural land of the Counts of Rovasenda, in the heart of the foothills of
the area called Baraggia Vercellese, clay soils that lend themselves to the cultivation of rice thanks to this natural characteristic.

WHY CHOOSE Riso Goio?
Riso goio is the only one in Italy and in the world to have 4 characteristics present at the same time:
1
It is cultivated in the Baraggia Vercellese.
First and only PDO on rice in Italy, this constitutes traceability and quality certification
2
It is sown “in dry”. With the technique of sowing in underground rows there is less use of water and pesticides: the plant grows healthier because the soil and the same remains more
oxygenated.
3
It is grown with crop rotation: after two years of soybeans, rice is sown. This practice leaves the
soil rich in natural nitrogen and free from weeds, thus limiting the use of chemical products.
