The northern part of Italy produces primarily grains, soybeans, meat, and dairy products, while the south specializes in fruits, vegetables, olive oil, wine, and durum wheat. Meat production in Italy is traditionally weak. Italy is also weak in forestry with less than one third of their land being classified as forest or woodlands as a result of over exploitation.

Deforestation is an environmental issue caused by agriculture in Italy. The consequences of deforestation in Italy are profound, affecting the environment, wildlife, and human communities. These impacts include erosion, soil degradation, loss of biodiversity, climate change contribution, and water cycle disruption. In 2023 Italy lost 37.8 kha of natural forest.

Another environmental issue in Italy that's caused by agriculture is soil salinization. The Po River lowland (Italy) is suffering of soil and surface water salinization due to seepage of saline groundwater into drainage canals of agricultural lands. This seepage of salt water into the groundwater is detrimental to agriculture land and is a major issue for the environment.
