Summarize this article for a 10 year old
Grana Padano is a cheese originating in the Po Valley, in northern Italy, similar to Parmesan. There are less strict regulations governing its production compared to Parmesan.[1] This hard, crumbly-textured cheese is made with unpasteurized cows' milk that is semi-skimmed through a natural creaming process.[clarification needed] To preserve the authenticity of the manufacturing processes and raw materials used to make this cheese, Grana Padano is registered as Geographical Indication in Italy since 1954[2] and as a European Union protected designation of origin (PDO) since 1996,[1][3][upper-alpha 1] and is protected in several other countries based on the Lisbon Agreement and bilateral agreements.[5][6]
