'''[[Template:Indicazione Geografica Protetta |IGP]] Uva da tavola di Canicatti''' is an Italian table grape in medium-to-large bunches of big [[grapes]] with
fleshy, crisp pulp; delicate muscatel aroma; colour yellow to pale yellow.

GEOGRAPHICAL AREA:

Territory of the communes in the provinces of Agrigento and Caltanissetta 

HISTORY AND ORIGIN OF THE PRODUCT:

The introduction of the "Italia" table [[grape]] dates from the first half of the 20th century, while the tradition of
cultivation of this crop has been rooted in the area for centuries.

METHOD OF PRODUCTION:

The vines are trained using the single arbour and/or double arbour system. Harvesting
goes on until the following year. Average yield per hectare is 25 000 kg.

LINK WITH THE GEOGRAPHICAL ENVIRONMENT:

The suitability and typical nature of the geographical zone being registered are
defined by a series of pedological, climatic and cultural factors which determine the
typical characteristics of the product. Of fundamental importance is the use of
specialized techniques to allow harvesting of the product over a long period, with
maintenance of its organoleptic characteristics, in the presence of a distinctly
Mediterranean climate which affects the performance of the local crops. The
maximum altitude is 550 metres. The zone is cool and airy. The soils are brown and
calcareous. The [[grapes]] are famous for their characteristic quality. About 60% are
marketed in Italy and about 40% in other Member States and in third countries.
