Environmental and Agriculture Pioneer and Innovator

Dr. Fabrizio Pecci’s green dream started in the Romagna region of Northern Italy. He was born in Cesena on August 30, 1968, and grew up in a family of hospitality entrepreneurs in Gabicce (43 miles northwest of Ancona), and he started working in the family business when he was a teenager.

Pecci studied accounting in high school and after that, he went to college, where he got a degree in political science and international relations. During his studies, he spent time abroad in order to learn foreign languages. He lived in many countries and was extremely fascinated and curious because of the different traditions and cultures.

In 2010, Pecci was living in the Far East and that is when he fell in love with bamboo. Thanks to his visionary mindset and perception, he was able to see beyond its ornamental value. He focused on the plant’s characteristics, multifunctional value, and enormous economic potential. He was really opened to changes and acknowledged that European agriculture needed fresh ideas as well as innovation. His entrepreneurial talent and agriculture experience allowed him to develop the OnlyMoso project, which consisted of a) delivering certified genetic material to produce mother plants and b) having professional commercial management and consulting network for plant production, accomplished by Consortia Bambu Italia.

In January 2014, he decided to show his OnlyMoso project to the agricultural community and it was a success. He ended up selling his first bamboo baby plants, which were later planted in September 2014. Pecci’s bamboo project kept growing and becoming extremely popular. Many entrepreneurs welcomed this new pioneering business because they could see what a great new opportunity this was. Agriculture is still considered a conservative sector, but combining the principles of sustainability and ethics, it creates a cutting-edge alternative for traditional crops. Thousands of bamboo acres were planted in Italy thanks to this business model, and the same thing is happening now in the USA. From the Italian Romagna region to the rest of the world, the green mine dream is making farmers happy and proud, and our environment can and will definitely benefit from this!
