Plant:

The plant of our Bronte Pistachio PDO is very resistant to drought, it is a long-lived plant that lives for 200 to 300 years. It has a very slow development and can only produce about ten years after its grafting. It flowers between April and May. The seed is single and elongated, light green in color, rich in oil and proteins.

The fruit is harvested every two years and is done in odd years, between the end of August and the beginning of September, by hand, dropping the fruit into a container carried on the shoulder or with the aid of tarpaulins or nets. This is followed by the phase of removing the husk, peeling and drying in the sun for a few days.
