Livestock / Animal Husbandry / industry, environmental impact | | Italian term or phrase: filiera della venericoltura | I'm a little confused!
I know that:
filiera= textile factory
and
venericoltura= clam fishery
Here in context: "...attività economiche legate alla filiera della venericoltura" |
| | Clarification request(s) and responsesimon tanner: 6:03pm Feb 27, 2008: Hi Anne. Filiera means the production chain in this context
simon tanner: 6:05pm Feb 27, 2008: see Italian wikipedia, under filiera: Con filiera si intende l'insieme delle aziende che concorrono a produrre, distribuire e commercializzare un dato prodotto alimentare.
Anne Woodall: 6:18pm Feb 27, 2008: Thanks! - I'll think I'll go with "clam fishery" and deal with the production chain in another part of the sentence. I got waylaid with DeMauro - only mentioned textile-related production.
