Bike and Pedestrian Paths in Rural Areas for Showing Marche Fruit and Vegetable Germplasm

This project aims to extend the didactic value of the Experimental Farm of the Polytechnic University of Marche to elementary and college students, and to members of the public. A multifunctional agricultural approach was considered a fundamental theme for the new millennium to better educate people in landscape and environment culture through the enjoyment of nature and its poetry in cultivated areas. The Experimental Farm has organised several open days for explaining technical problems, and some visits for showing young students the traditional seasonal products of the region. At present the project is to introduce the enjoyment of sports and a natural life-style, combining this with the field visits of the traditional cultivated varieties in Marche region.
