I would add that in the case of a "prosciuttificio" (small factory that
produces raw cured ham) in many cases these processing plants buy the meat
and run only the curing process, which takes more than a year. They may
also have a shop or only resell.
So we are talking about a small very specialised meat-processing facility.
The official EU translation site https://iate.europa.eu/ translates
"prosciuttificio" (and "salumificio", which produces salami) with "ham
factory".
If the EU gives that as official translation, then this should be good
enough for OSM.

I would certainly not use "man_made", but "craft", a least for the smaller
ones. Hence I would suggest to start tagging them as "craft=ham_factory"
even though this is a new tag.

... and you should be grateful that the language of the OSM DB is not
French, because in that case it would be "craft=
établissement_de_production_de_jambons"
:-)

Maybe a more generic approach could be
craft=meat_curing
product=ham
