Mario Pagliaro, a chemist and climatology enthusiast, has made predictions regarding the future of the agricultural market, specifically focusing on durum wheat and extra virgin olive oil. He forecasts a significant increase in the price of durum wheat, potentially reaching nearly 100 euros per quintal, due to climatic conditions impacting production in Sicily and Southern Italy, as well as other factors. For olive oil, he anticipates a surge in prices, especially with reduced production in Spain and Tunisia, caused by adverse weather conditions. He cautions consumers to be wary of adulteration and advises seeking out trusted local producers to ensure product quality and safety.
