Short and sustainable buffalo meat chain: innovation in breeding, processing and communication for a high-quality Sicilian product with reduced environmental impact.
Innovameat aims to develop a short and sustainable chain of Sicilian buffalo meat, intervening on every stage: from breeding to processing. The project will introduce innovative technologies for environmental monitoring and management, new eco-sustainable feed enriched with olive oil to reduce methane emissions and improve nutritional efficiency. Meat processing is planned using natural antioxidants and microbial starters selected to enhance sensory qualities, safety and nutritional value of the finished products.
The project partners represent a synergistic network of expertise and strategic resources: farms and livestock (Azienda Agricola Magazzè, Azienda Agricola Spadola, Azienda Agricola Eredi Cottonaro Paolo s.s.), research centers (Parco Scientifico e Tecnologico della Sicilia, Università degli Studi di Catania, Università degli Studi di Messina), quality control bodies and agro-food processors (Masserie del Sole soc. coop.). The partner farmers are field-testing new feed formulas and monitoring systems. Research centres assess zootechnical, environmental and technological performance by providing validated protocols. Our partner processors develop new fermented and aged products. Finally, the scientific partners ensure the dissemination of results, ensuring transferability and impact of innovations throughout the production chain.
A conscious choice
We carefully monitor every stage of the production process, applying strict controls throughout the supply chain: from raw material to finished product. We rely on trusted partners to ensure a transparent and responsible process, in full compliance with food safety and the quality of our traceable Sicilian meats.
