SME Cilentan, born in Casal Velino, has developed a system that allows you to verify the typical ingredients of a product, for example PDO, such as buffalo mozzarella or Grana Padano or even Tuscan Pecorino, and certify that the product meets specifications. A technology that uses artificial intelligence and reveals what is actually in the content of a product. And he manages to do it with such precision that he even offers certification. PMi is Farzati, originally from Cilento, born as a software house and grown in ten years by producing technology for various sectors: from space to food agriculture.
Farzati is an innovative SME and certified research organization developing proprietary technologies that combine instrumental chemistry, artificial intelligence and blockchain to guarantee advanced traceability, certified quality and decision support systems along the agri-food, bio-based, forestry, environmental and livestock supply chains, with 4 patents, 5 registered trademarks and a series of industrial and research and development projects financed at European level.
Currently Farzati technology is used for cfood quality control and certification of origin, aanti-counterfeiting in the DOP/IGP supply chain (such as for Grana Padano and Mozzarella di Bufala Campana), addressing mreal-time environmental monitoring (water, wood, biomass), validating biodegradability and compostability of bioplastics. Among its clients are companies such as Novamont and Sorgenia), trade associations (Coldiretti), and DOP consortia (Mozzarella di Bufala Campana, Grana Padano, Pecorino Toscano). And more than thirty partners in Research & Development (including Federico II University, University of Salerno and University of Palermo). The company plans to open commercial branches in Switzerland, Brazil and Qatar by 2026.
At the heart of this innovation is BluDev, a hardware-software platform that performs non-invasive chemical analysis, in real time, with systems powered by AI, blockchain, and deep learning. Each product gets a unique chemical signature and digital twin, plus portable and in-line systems (milking, irrigation, industrial extrusion). Farzati isn’t ignoring the appearance of his system either: the device will be on display from December 10 at the Design Museum in London.
The latest technology introduced to the market is a technology called “In-Ovo Sexing”, which addresses an ethical and economic challenge in the poultry sector: the culling of male chicks. «By means of special molecular sensors and neural networks – explains Giorgio Ciardella, CEO and founder of the small company – BluDev analyzes the eggs in the first days after laying, without solvents or chemicals. “If a male is found, the eggs can be sent to another market, in accordance with the provisions of the Ministry of Agriculture in 2019. Preventing male chicks from being born and then killed in a barbaric manner.”
