The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) global food price index fell in January to its lowest levels in nearly three years, driven by declines in the prices of some types of grains and meat prices.
The organization said on Friday that its price index, which measures changes in the prices of the most widely traded primary food commodities globally, recorded an average of 118 points in January, down from 119.1 the previous month.
January's reading is the lowest since February 2021.
