Global Food Prices Reach Record Highs
Global food prices have reached record highs in the last 3 years, driven by weather damage and escalating conflicts in the Gulf region and the Black Sea, according to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). The increase was driven by the food price index, which rose by 3.4% compared to June, among other things due to a 5.8% increase in wheat prices.35 sourcesSee all sources
