PAGEPress is an Open Access scientific publisher run by a team that has been developing services for the international scientific community since 1992.
Initially PAGEPress (formerly known as Medit), took charge of the production management of Haematologica (both print and online versions) providing its publishing services in outsourcing for this journal. Then, it was added another important publication, the European Journal of Basic and Applied Histochemistry (now, European Journal of Histochemistry) distinguishing itself for its professional quality of scholarly publishing.
In 2008, the lack of specialized professional organizations on the Italian market led Michele Moscato (founder and CEO at PAGEPress) to create the PAGEPress brand. Thanks to his experience (former librarian at the University of Pavia and then Production Manager of Haematologica, for which he held the position of Production Supervisor for more than 20 years), PAGEPress has rapidly grown to become a leader in its field, providing quality and innovative publishing services. Today it enjoys the loyalty of universities, international associations and scientific societies that entrust it with the development of their publications.
It was our commitment to making the results of academic research available to the international community that gave birth to the idea of a publisher entirely devoted to Open Access with the desire to spread academic knowledge. PAGEPress started off with 6 journals and is now the provider of more than 90 Open Access scientific publications in a variety of fields. For over eight years now, PAGEPress has strived to promote the circulation of scientific research, offering cost-effective solutions to authors, libraries and scientific societies.
PAGEPress strongly believe in the Open Access model: free, digital, online and exempt from most copyright restrictions, all factors that allow publications to be read, down-loaded and re-mixed by anyone who needs them for his or her own research. What’s more, we believe in a proficient and high-quality organization in which scientists, editors, reviewers and product managers work together to promote the accurate dissemination of scientific results.
The company is registered with the Chamber of Commerce in Pavia, Italy (number IT02125780185) according to the provisions of Italian Commercial Law.
PAGEPress’ name and logo are trademark registered in Pavia, 2009. The company is the property of a single entity (60% shareholder) and a panel of other smaller investors (40%).

Displaying 1 - 5 of 11A methodology for evaluating land suitability for medicinal plants at a regional level
Before introducing a new crop in an area, such as medicinal plant species, crop-land suitability analysis is a prerequisite to achieve an optimum exploitation of the available land resources for a sustainable agricultural production. To evaluate the land suitability it is important to take into account the habitats of the plant species. Moreover, agronomic, logistic and product quality aspects have to be considered.
Effectiveness of the GAEC standard of cross compliance Prohibition of performing unauthorized land levelling on soil erosion control
The GAEC standard land levelling under authorization of cross compliance prohibits farmers from levelling land through bulldozing without a specific permission issued by the proper territorial authority. The aim of the standard is to ensure the protection of soil from accelerated erosion that almost always occurs when land is levelled without conservative criteria.
Evaluation of rapeseed cultivation suitability in Apulia with GIS-multicriteria analysis
The potential of land for energy crops is determined by an evaluation of biophysical and economical variables. From this respect, climate, soil and geomorphologic environmental components are the most important agro-ecological variables to conduct this kind of evaluation. In this study, Geographic Information System (GIS) has been used to identify the most suitable areas for rapeseed crop production in the Apulia region.
The Integrated Assessment of Land Degradation
This paper reviews recent findings on the complex field of land degradation (LD) with focus on the Mediterranean Basin and Italy, in particular. The LD definition and assessment methods are examined in the light of the most important natural and human driving forces of the phenomenon, such as land use and climate changes.Various methodological issues are dealt with from multidisciplinary perspective with the aim of providing the ground for the development of integrated approaches: monitoring needs, assessment of costs, development of mitigation strategies, etc.
