The World Bank – Food Security Update, Mar 2025

Conflicts and weather conditions continue to worsen food security in various countries.

In Sudan, mass displacement, economic collapse, and limited access to humanitarian aid have led to an unprecedented food and nutrition crisis, with nearly 25 million people facing acute food shortages. Since February 2025, agricultural, cereal, and export price indices have decreased by 8%, 4%, and 11%, respectively. Food price inflation remains high in most low-income countries. The World Bank highlights 60 years of steady growth in global agricultural yields but expresses concern about potential stagnation in the future. The March 2025 AMIS Market Monitor report notes fluctuations in crop prices.
