It’s difficult to tell whether we’re in economic crisis or not around these parts, as shares bounce up and down and consumers are still spending.
One Italian product in crisis though, is the famous cheese Parmigiano Reggiano and Grana Padano.
Cooperatives for the protection of these cheeses have already applied to Italy’s agricultural minister Luca Zaia for a solution to the problem.

Parmigiano Reggiano and Grana Padano are extremely important in Italy’s agricultural partimony and enogastronomic tradition.

They are among the products at the forefront of Italy’s DOP system of protecting its traditional food products.
The strategy to address the Parmigiano Reggiano crisis includes the government purchasing a large amount of the product to give in donation to the poor and discussions regarding the appreciation and protection of Italy’s DOP (Denominazione di Origine Protetta) products overseas.
Whatever happens, Italy’s poor could find themselves with wonderful, exquisite examples of Italy’s premier cheese, all in the name of helping out the producers.
