Over the past 10 months, world prices of most grains and oilseeds have fallen back to levels prior to the war in Ukraine. Likewise, volatility in prices has also declined considerably from recent highs. With the extension of the Black Sea Grain Initiative, there is hope that the world is recovering from the price shocks of the past year. Yet, while prices have fallen in international markets, they have frequently remained high at local level, particularly in net food importing developping countries reflecting the weakening of their currencies against the US dollar. As a result, food price inflation is still a serious concern in many countries, also because post-farm gate costs for shipping and processing remain subject to inflationary pressures.

The FAO Food Price Index* (FFPI) averaged 126.9 points in March 2023, down 2.8 points (2.1 percent) from February, marking the twelfth consecutive monthly decline since reaching its peak one year ago. During the past twelve months since March 2022, the index has fallen by as much as 32.8 points (20.5 percent). The decline in the index in March was led by drops in the cereal, vegetable oil and dairy price indices, while those of sugar and meat increased. » The FAO Cereal Price Index averaged 138.6 points in March, down 8.2 points (5.6 percent) from February and 31.6 points (18.6 percent) below its one year ago. This month’s decrease reflects a fall in international prices of all major cereals. International wheat prices fell the most, by 7.1 percent, driven by ample global supplies and strong competition among exporters. The extension of the Black Sea Grain Initiative, allowing Ukraine to continue to export from its Black Sea ports, also contributed to the decline. Higher estimates for Australia’s production, along with improved crop conditions in the European Union this month, boosted the global supply outlook further. Strong competition from the Russia...

The February edition of the JRC MARS Bulletin - Global outlook for North Africa - describes a cereal season marked by drought in large parts of the Maghreb, where cereal yield potentials have been negatively impacted.This resulted in an overall delay in crop development and below-average crop biomass accumulation in most of the main cereal-growing regions of Morocco, a wide belt across Algeria, and the northern-eastern and central regions of Tunisia.Rain is urgently needed to avoid further losses.

Together with olive oil and wine, bread is one of the signs of the Mediterranean identity. It is a fundamental food for the entire population: the basis of food security. But climate change is threatening its production, so science needs to come to help.

After the mild winter, winter crops entered spring in fair to good condition in most parts of Europe. However, partially expanding and intensifying dry conditions in the south raise increasing concerns. As it is still early in the season, the crop yield forecasts reported here are – with a few exceptions - based on historical trends.

Un peu plus de 11,5 millions de tonnes de céréales sont concernées par une décision administrative. C'est une situation ubuesque pour l'une des principales puissances agricoles mondiales. À partir du 25 avril, la France ne pourra plus exporter sa production céréalière en dehors d'Europe. À cette date, l'utilisation de phosphine, un insecticide, sera, en effet, interdite en France pour traiter les cargaisons de céréales dans les cales des bateaux. Or la fumigation de ce produit, utilisé en tablettes, est obligatoire dans de nombreux pays clients de l'Hexagone, à commencer par l'Afrique du nord, pour pouvoir débarquer la marchandise.

The Market Monitor of the G20 Agricultural Market Information System (AMIS) tracks current and expected future trends in international food markets, including market and policy drivers, and detects conditions that warrant the attention of policy makers. With no end in sight to the war in Ukraine and threats of further escalation, uncertainty continues to hang over agricultural markets. Supplies are tight. Reduced plantings in Ukraine mean that other countries will need to produce additional grains and
oilseeds to help rebuild global stocks and moderate price levels. The world has so far been relatively fortunate: a combination of
good weather and strong producer supply response has kept market prices from rebounding back to the high levels of early
2022. However, tight stocks will mean increased price volatility, particularly during periods of uncertainty such as planting times
and the Northern Hemisphere growing seasons.
In addition, uncertainty over events like the renewal of the Black Sea Grain Initiative will continue to roil markets.
