The measures aim at supporting agricultural and processing activities and the farming systems associated with high quality products. The regulationindicatesagricultural products with value-adding characteristics and attributes as a result of the farming or processing methods used in their production, or of the place of their production or marketing. It regulate the use of different indication and symbol: PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) for foodstuffs produced, processed and prepared in a specific geographical area using recognised methods; PGI (Protected Geographic Indication) when there is a link with the area and at least one of the stages of production, processing or preparation; traditional speciality guaranteed", "TSG"; "mountain product".The use of denominations and symbols attributes additional value on products, showing their differences with respect to other similar products; it encourages the diversification of agricultural production and, by promoting rural economy, can favour the population in less favoured areas.
