The most popular variety of farmed duck is the anatra muta, because of its free-range lifestyle (its wings are clipped so it canβt fly away, but it is left free to forage for food in ponds and the like). The main farming areas for duck in Italy are Piedmont, Lombardy, Emilia-Romagna and the Veneto. In Piedmont and Emilia-Romagna, duck are force-fed to enlarge the liver to make fegato grasso (foie gras), more for export to other countries where this speciality is much more appreciated.
