The plain of Fucino in the Abruzzo region of Italy is commonly recognized for the quality of the vegetables that are grown here - in particular the potatoes, carrots, and radishes. What is now an entire plain filled with farms was once Fucine Lake, the third largest lake in Italy. The lake was drained in 1877 to make agricultural development possible here, an area that is now responsible for roughly 25% of the agricultural production in the region.
