The latest issue of the FPMA (Food Price Monitoring and Analysis) Bulletin FAO/GIEWS monthly report has been released. The monthly FPMA Bulletin reports food price trends at world, regional and country level with a focus on countries where prices of one or more basic food commodity are at abnormal high levels in main markets.
Main highlights of this issue are higher international prices of wheat and rice; while at sub-regional level, a general increase in prices of rice in Asia, notably to record highs in Bangladesh, and the new harvests in East Africa putting downward pressure on cereal prices, which, however remain at near-record levels.
