Belgian potato ‘Plate de Florenville’ receive Commission protected status


The Commission has today approved the addition of one new product to the register of Protected Designations of Origin (PDO) and two new products to the register of Protected Geographical Indications (PGI).

For Spain, ‘Fesols de Santa Pau’ (PDO) are the seeds of the following traditional varieties of bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.): Tavella Brisa, Setsetmanera and Gra Petit; dried or cooked and preserved.

For Belgium, ‘Plate de Florenville’ (PGI) is a potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) of the old French variety ‘Rosa’ - this late to semi-late variety has a very long dormancy and its cultivation requires on average 120 days in the ground.

For France, ‘Artichaut du Roussillon’ (PGI) is an artichoke of the genus Cynara, belonging to the Asteraceae family; it comprises the following varieties: Blanc hyérois (also known as Macau), Calico, Pop Vert, Salambo and Violet VP 45. These three denominations will be added to the list of over 1,200 products already protected.
