Why it mattered
Italy closed 2025/26 with 195.0 kt in store, 46.7% more than the roughly 133 kt of a year earlier, with extra virgin at 150.2 kt and Italian-origin extra virgin at 82.2 kt, up 170.5%. The overhang meeting the new crop is smaller than in July (233.4 kt) but still large, which keeps Italian origin prices under pressure into the campaign.
Downward if confirmed · the desk's reading
The 30 September reading is Italy's equivalent of the AICA carry-in: the last figure before the new campaign, and the base every 2026/27 balance is built on.
Read alongside the Ismea-Unaprol production estimate of 28 September, it frames whether Italy enters the campaign long or square.
Dated on the ICQRF's usual cadence of the 10th, moved to the Monday.
