Data were collected through an online questionnaire from convenience sample 292 respondents analysed statistical analysis multiple linear regression model. Findings results showed WTP influenced by frequency purchase, familiarity with technology, environmental sustainability, income education. Consumers place high value sustainability production process perception increased safety positively influences WTP. It therefore recommended marketing strategies focus products. In addition, may be beneficial implement certification system specific cultivation, addition existing “zero-residue” certifications. Originality/value study introduces several novel elements: first assess Italian consumers’ product. Secondly, assesses relation aspects increasing relevance related health claims, namely
