Food prices remain high
The FAO’s Food Price Index fell to 133.9 points in October 2026, from 135.6 in September, as export flows through the Black Sea improved. However, it remained 5.9% above its level a year earlier. Cereal prices fell 4.5%, driven by lower wheat and maize prices, while sugar prices rose 6.6% to their highest level since December 2024 after rains disrupted Brazil’s harvest. In a separate report, the FAO said that 41 countries and territories, including 31 in Africa, need external food assistance.
