The National Union of Italian Consumers (Unc) reports that from June 2021, the country's costs for pasta have risen, climbing by 37% during this time. This is attributed to the declining cost of the wheat needed to manufacture this type of pasta.
According to figures by the Institute of Agri-Food Market Services (Ismea), grain imported from non-EU nations has decreased in price by 34.4% since April 2022 and the price of Italian durum wheat has decreased by 28.3%.
One kilogram of pasta now costs more than €2 in Italian regions and provinces, according to research conducted in March by the consumer rights group Assoutenti. Ancona set the record price at €2.44, while Bologna, Genoa, and Cagliari reported high costs as well.
