In recent years, Chiaravalle has been at the forefront of a new approach to agriculture and farming, which has seen a growth of a number of new vegetable gardens, farms and cheese factories in the area. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has contributed during the centuries to the development of its contiguous landscape by transforming the swamps that surrounds it into productive fields. The Benedictine monks, around the year 1000, invented the Grana Padano<\/em>, a less famous and yet as important version of the parmesan cheese, while the Abbey Mill has served the community for generations.
