Raguso Family

Pastificio Raguso is a project born more than 10 years ago by Mirko and Antonio. They are third-generation farmers who decided to create high-quality pasta from what they know best: durum semolina wheat grown in their own fields between Puglia and Basilicata. Quality here begins in the wheat seed and is revealed throughout the entire process - from the selection of the best wheat varieties and sustainable care of the fields to the careful preparation of the harvest. Raguso pasta combines simplicity, care and nature - this is how the aroma of wheat, the strength of these lands and the taste of authenticity are revealed. And after tasting it, the thought naturally arises: you don't even need a sauce!

Principles of farming

Regus Farm uses innovative, data-driven and technology-driven farming - decisions are made based on measurements, not just experience or intuition. Durum semolina wheat is sown and grown in the fields using Agriculture 4.0 principles and cutting-edge technologies. Innovative solutions allow us to monitor the growth of wheat throughout the season and use resources responsibly. The growing process is consistently recorded, and the most suitable wheat varieties for pasta production are selected based on quality indicators. This ensures clear origin, consistent quality and taste.

Regions

The history of Raguso connects two regions of Southern Italy - Puglia and Basilicata. These lands have a long tradition of growing durum semolina wheat, and the favorable climatic conditions highlight the importance of precision farming. The wheat is grown in the Lucanian hills of Basilicata, on a family farm, making the region here not only the origin, but also the center of production today, continued from generation to generation.

Unique products

Reguso pasta is unique due to two main production principles. First, each pasta shape is pressed through bronze discs - this makes the surface slightly rougher, allowing sauces to soak in more evenly. Also, a long-standing tradition is followed: the pasta is dried slowly, with patience, to preserve the rich taste and high quality characteristic of durum semolina wheat flour. In addition, the farm applies the "Zero Residue" practice - the aim is to reduce the use of synthetic pesticides and the risk of chemical residues in the product, thus ensuring a cleaner pasta composition.
