- Company details
Our company’s roots run deep into our ancient history, dating back to a 1792 document officially recording Sisinnio Falchi as “...farmer and breeder...”, later to also become public notary for the town of Oristano.
His son Vincenzo – and many family members thereafter – devoted his life to developing the family business. After him, his son Giovannico - a pioneering entrepreneur who was knighted for his major contributions to the country’s economy - extended the firm’s output from farming proper to the inclusion of
industrial processing and food preserves retail.
After his passing in 1933, the large firm was handed down to his seven children, and just like nowadays, the honour befell a determined manager, Marietta Falchi, to successfully run the family firm.
Following the second world war, the firm’s new generations set their minds on improving and innovating the agricultural practices, introducing new machinery and developing technologies.
The real turning point came with Antonio who, armed with a Degree in Agriculture at Pisa in 1952, reformed the firm’s production priorities by shifting them mainly towards rice cultivation. And today, it is Antonio’s daughters, Maura,
Elisabetta, Cristina and Paola – together with mamma Rosanna – who carry the family tradition into its sixth generation.
With doctor agronomist Elisabetta at the helm, the Azienda Agricola Falchi produces our traditional Italian rice, as well as the innovative coloured and aromatic, non-OGM seeds varieties by R&D SAPISE.
Our product is rigorously certified by Ente Nazionale Risi and by CREA, and is grown with the environment at heart. We treat our soil, our air and our water like the vital elements they are. Keeping them intact ensures that we maintain essential ecological functions, to protect and preserve them for our future
generations.

Black Rice Venere Falchi Box 24 pcs 500 g
Venere rice was created by a conventional crossbreed (no OGM) between a variety of Asian black rice and a variety of Padan rice. Venere rice presents a small and scented grain, with an aroma that reminds of freshly baked bread, typical of oriental rices. The colour of the grain is ebony. The dark pigmentation of the finished product is due to the antioxidant metabolites. The final product is wholegrain rice that is rich in nutrients, and an important source of fiber.
