FAO – Monthly Report on Food Price Trends, Feb 2026

This report provides an analysis and monitoring of global and domestic food price trends, focusing on cereals and staple foods.

It highlights stable maize prices supported by ample supplies, mixed developments in wheat prices influenced by various factors, and increased international rice prices driven by firmer demand. The report also covers regional price trends, including seasonal easing of coarse grain prices in West Africa, price increases in East Africa due to poor harvests, and record-high cereal prices in the Near East caused by currency weakness.
