Description
The Niedda almond tree is a traditional Sardinian variety, whose name derives from the local term mendula, used in Sardinia to refer both to the tree and the fruit. First mentioned by Giovanni Sirotti in 1935 and later identified in the 1980s by the research team at the University of Sassari led by Mario Agabbio, it stands as a testament to the island’s rich agricultural biodiversity.
