Montelujano, heart of the omonym area located in the territory of Gubbio, is the place chosen by Count Guido Bonarelli (Ancona 1871 - Rome 1951), geologist and explorer of the early twentieth century in distant lands, as the return home from his travels. 

In 1904-05, in a break from his job as a researcher of oil fields in Borneo for the Royal Dutch, buys some land in Gubbio, in areas Monteluiano and Mocaiana, the first nucleus of his future estate "Montereano", this name that he give himself to his land. Montelujano then became the family residence and seat of the farm. 

Agriculture strongly linked to love for the land was the theme of a lifetime: 

"Montereano! Currently it is our refuge. In the serene peace of these fields we find some refreshment and relief. Labors and bitterness are the alternating relentlessly repeated episodes of our existence much fought. Only up here you can enjoy a little truce. 
Other life, other treatments, other thoughts. The promises of the campaign, the joyful chirping of birds, the fervor of rural affairs form the frame of the picture which reflects and summarizes our current life made ​​of peace and rest. 
Mail, newspapers, some rare break sometimes visit this serene monotony, then come the anger with the farmers and masons, but they are fleeting things. The letters you answer yes and no, the papers are thrown into the fire, the visitors go away! Back to the quiet, back rest; otherwise the waters of a pond in a short resume the usual immobility with the vanishing of the last ripples a pebble, a deciduous or the rustling of the wind drew on its surface. "

In Montelujano, he would often interrupt his professional activity with long periods of rest, devoting himself passionately to cultivation and in particular to fruit growing, proving to be an excellent farmer and expert pruner. 

At the end of the thirties had installed two new peach orchards where the peach trees and pear trees interspersed had: the former have a short duration while the peri-and especially olive trees have much longer life and the latter are in fact more productive at a distance of more than half century! 

This active participation to the problems of agriculture will be awarded a certificate of merit received from the Provincial Commission of Propaganda Granaria as a participant in the Provincial Competition for the wheat battle (27 November 1932) and with a cash prize, received the Provincial Inspectorate Agriculture of Perugia, for winning the National Competition of Fruit (14 January 1940). 

At his death his son Leonardo Bonarelli (Milan 1925-1998), alternating his work as an engineer, and continued farming in 1982, with the end of sharecropping, directly takes on the management of the company, renewing processing methods and agricultural means of enhancing the endowment of agricultural vehicles, with the result of achieving full operational and managerial autonomy. In the nineties he also origin agritourism activities, which can count on a minimum initial settlement. 

Farming and agritourism, with the criteria of management and innovation closer to the needs of an open market, continues with the entrepreneurial initiative of Guido Bonarelli (Rome 1952), grandson of the founder, who in 1999 gives life to the Azienda Agraria Montelujano.
