About Agri Valtellina

Agri Valtellina is the historic agricultural and livestock fair of Bassa Valtellina, held in Poira di Colorina, in the province of Sondrio. Three days dedicated to livestock farming and mountain traditions, with the Regional Brown Breed Show and the Provincial Friesian Breed Show as the main attractions, alongside markets, tastings, an Agri-Family area, equestrian shows, and convivial moments like the pizzoccherata and the Valtellina lunch. A festival celebrating the deep bond between the valley, its breeders, and its products, between biodiversity and rural culture.

The festival of Valtellina agriculture

Agri Valtellina is one of the most cherished agricultural events in the province of Sondrio, established in 1986 and hosted ever since in the hamlet of Poira di Colorina, in Bassa Valtellina. For three days, the location becomes a meeting point for breeders, farmers, and families, in a grand celebration centered on mountain livestock farming and the valley's traditions.

Livestock shows

The heart of the event are the two major cattle shows: the Regional Brown Breed Show and the Provincial Friesian Breed Show, with awards for the best animals. These are opportunities to admire the best of Valtellina breeding and to reflect, also through dedicated conferences, on the role of breeders as guardians of biodiversity.

Markets, tastings, and traditions

Alongside the shows, Agri Valtellina offers markets, tastings of typical products, the Agri-Family area designed for children, equestrian shows, and convivial moments such as the pizzoccherata, the Valtellina lunch, country dancing, and the Agri-Party. There are also exhibitions dedicated to sheep wool crafts and mountain photography. A complete festival, telling the agricultural and cultural identity of Valtellina.
