France has temporarily relaxed strict production rules for several iconic cheeses due to severe drought and record heat, which have left pastures depleted. Producers of abondance, beaufort, and comté cheeses can now use more imported fodder and grain to feed their cows. This measure aims to support farmers affected by the poor fodder situation in almost all regions.
