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 the decline in international prices of wheat and maize; at country level, the high level of key grain staples in Argentina, Brazil and the Sudan and the further increase in prices of white maize in Nicaragua to near-record levels.
