Italy debunks false Parmigiano Reggiano crisis amid heatwave

— Aug 20, 2026
Extreme heat across Italy and Europe is driving up energy use to keep Parmigiano Reggiano wheels aging safely, with banks like Credito Emiliano’s MGT maintaining about 500,000 wheels worth €300 million in climate-controlled stores, while dairy cows’ milk yields drop under heat. Despite social media claims of a “Great Parmesan Crisis,” authorities say the cheese and its storage banks remain secure, aided by upgrades in refrigeration, insulation, and solar power to cope with higher temperatures.
