FAO – Monthly Report on Food Price Trends, Jun 2025
The main theme of the report is related to the analysis of global and domestic prices of food commodities, particularly cereals.
Key findings include a sharp decline in global maize prices in May 2025 due to improved seasonal availability and record production forecasts in the United States. Wheat prices also fell due to improved crop conditions in some major exporting countries and changes in trade policies in Argentina and the Russian Federation. Meanwhile, international rice prices rose due to sustained demand for aromatic varieties and currency strengthening in some exporting countries. Domestic markets are facing the impact of conflicts, currency fluctuations, and extreme weather conditions, which continue to influence price changes for staple foods.
