  "text": "The geographical macro-zone in which pig farms providing meat for ‘Salame Brianza’ are located has a highly uniform landscape, especially in the wholly flat area of the Po Valley, which is criss-crossed by rivers and canals and is rich in plant life, with meadows and maize in particular. The climate is characterised by fairly harsh autumns and winters that are very damp and foggy, with mild and rainy springs, and fairly hot summers where short rain showers are quite common and often come in intense bursts.\nWithin this macro-zone, the production micro-zone for ‘Salame Brianza’ PDO is in the Brianza region itself, and offers fertile plains alternating with sun-bathed hills, sheltered by a vast mountain range to the north, which filters the air currents and weather systems, creating various atmospheric phenomena such as air-filtering, warm down-slope winds, cold winds (when the currents blow from the north instead of from the west), and fog.",
