This The Apulia Region has large underutilized and, in some cases, abandoned areas. At the same time, soil and climatic conditions are suitable for the development of dyeing and fibre plants that could rise to the role of alternative crops in the context of local agriculture. This work intends to be a contribution to the appreciation of the tradition of dyeing and fiber crops of our country such as Reseda luteola L., Rubia tinctorum L. and Urtica dioica L. In particular for the latter crop, a cost-benefit analysis will be offered for disadvantaged areas of the Apulia Region. The development perspectives appear promising and worthy of testing on site.

Abstract
This The Apulia Region has large underutilized and, in some cases, abandoned areas. At the same time, soil and climatic conditions are suitable for the development of dyeing and fibre plants that could rise to the role of alternative crops in the context of local agriculture. This work intends to be a contribution to the appreciation of the tradition of dyeing and fiber crops of our country such as Reseda luteola L., Rubia tinctorum L. and Urtica dioica L. In particular for the latter crop, a cost-benefit analysis will be offered for disadvantaged areas of the Apulia Region. The development perspectives appear promising and worthy of testing on site.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
