📸 Parmigiano cheese ahead of price hikes; the culprit is the heat

This year’s persistent heat in Italy has also brought serious problems for cheese producers. The situation may even lead to Parmigiano cheese becoming more expensive, which is also known by the names “Parmigiano” or “Parmesan.”

Parmigiano cheese must be stored for at least 12 months in temperature-controlled facilities, and the heat has sharply increased the cost of keeping it.

Given these conditions, many dairy industry experts predict that in the near future the prices of Italy’s famous cheeses will rise even more.
