Today the Castle of Oliveto is the heart of an important farm (Fattoria Oliveto spa) that covers 1120 hectares, of which 520 are occupied by cultivated land. So the farm includes a lot of woods in order to respect the natural environment, wild animals, ecosystems and the typical Tuscan landscape.
About 600 hectares of the farm are used for hunting. In fact you can see pheasants, hares, partridges, wild rabbits in woods and cultivated lands.
This is a good example of how animals and modern farming can exist side by side. Most cultivated land is used to produce cereals, 25 hectares are occupied by vines and 15 hectares by olive-groves.
