ORIGINS
FORTE FAMILY
The Forte companies are direct producers of simple alfalfa feed for animals. This food represents the dietary foundation for all types of ruminants and herbivores. The company got its start back in 1962, when it was founded by Giuseppe Forte in the heart of the Po Delta Regional Park..
A STORY OF COMMITMENT, HARD WORK, AND PASSION
When Giuseppe’s sons, Leonardo and Luigi, guided by these same values, joined the company in the 1990s, the decade brought enormous opportunity, growth, and expansion. In the new millennium, through a radical transformation which affected all areas of the business, the company further strengthened its presence in the domestic market and in major foreign markets.
Beginning in 2015, with the OPEN FARM start-up created by Luigi Forte, the company launched a simultaneous communications initiative aimed at promoting the primary sector, livestock feed, and Italian production industries.
Our history began in 1962, here in the heart of the Po Delta Regional Park, a unique and generous region that has helped us to turn our passion into an outstanding agro-industrial company specialised in the production and transformation of alfalfa.

WE GIVE VALUE BACK TO WHAT IS TRULY HEALTHY
What the livestock farming industry is communicating to consumers: we’re returning to primary needs thanks to what we’ve learned from alfalfa!
To you in the industry we say: choose a new way to communicate with consumers, choose the Open Farm Method.
