ICQRF Frantoio Italia: August stocks (Italy)
A reading at or above 230 kt would mean August barely drew down and the overhang meets the new crop nearly intact, adding to the downward pressure on origin prices. Below 210 kt would show the low quotations are finally clearing stock.
Downward if confirmed · the desk's reading
The July release put Italian stocks at 233,377 t, down 9.7% on June but 43.9% above July 2025, with extra virgin at 185,373 t and only 61.4% of the total of Italian origin.
Italy carries this overhang into the 2026/27 campaign while origin quotations have roughly halved year on year, so the August level sets how much unsold oil meets the new crop.
Dated on the ICQRF's usual cadence of the 10th rather than an announced date.
