Germany: Bavarian asparagus gets geographical status
The news was announced by Helmut Brunner, the Bavarian minister of agriculture. To achieve this goal of geographical indication has taken 5 years.
Only asparagus from the 'Sandgürtel' region between Siegenburg, Neustadt, Abensberg and Langquaid will be allowed to carry the designation.
"Thanks to the designation our Bavarian produce and its traditional quality will be safeguarded and recognised," the minister said.
