FAO cautions on upcoming global inflation

The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) indicates that a wave of food inflation is imminent, driven by rising oil prices, shortages of fertilizers and diesel fuel, and severe weather changes. It is expected that the impact of these increases will last from 3 to 6 months, with a warning that they will put additional pressure on farmers' profit margins and influence production decisions. Reports point to disruptions in supply chains—such as those caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, conflicts in Ukraine and the Gulf region—that are worsening the situation. Market resistance to these disruptions has led to a significant rise in the prices of basic commodities like sugar and oil in Sudan, while households' purchasing power declines, resulting in reduced buying quantities. This reflects a deterioration in food security and increased hardship for families, especially in the Middle East. FAO has called on the international community to assume its responsibilities and adopt political solutions to end conflicts and facilitate the flow of energy and fertilizer resources, as these are essential to prevent the worsening of the global food crisis.
