The price chart in the article showing the +50% rise is labeled "IT durum wheat DELFIRST". I believe the "IT" stands for "Italy", so this is already showing the effect on the Italian market.
- giuliomagnifico 5y agoYes but for the imported durum wheat, that it doesn’t mean it used for Italian pasta, at least not all the pastas because on Italian brands are usi no their own fields for the durum wheat, it isn’t an importer one. Probably the imported durum wheat is used for other things, like farina or fodder. I’m not saying that it will not happen a price increase, a lot of people are saying it also in Italy, but a lot less than the +50%, surely. Here’s an interview with the CEO of an Italian pasta maker (La Molisiana): "I know that Lidl has already increased the price of pasta by 10 cents - he adds - and I expect that well before Christmas everyone will expect increases between 15 and 20 cents per package".
