The FAO Food Price Index* (FFPI) averaged 135.7 points in November 2022, virtually unchanged from October, with month-on-month decreases in the price indices for cereals, dairy and meat, nearly offsetting increases in those of vegetable oils and sugar. At this level, the index stood only marginally above (0.3 percent) its corresponding value in November 2021.
» The FAO Cereal Price Index averaged 150.4 points in November, down 1.9 points (1.3 percent) from October, but still 9.0 points (6.3 percent) above its value a year ago. World wheat prices registered a 2.8-percent decline during the month of November, mostly driven by the rejoining of the Russian Federation in the Black Sea Grain Initiative and the extension of the agreement, subdued import demand for supplies from the United States of America due to uncompetitive prices, and greater competition in global markets with increased shipments from the Russian Federation. International prices of coarse grains also eased in November, down 1.0 percent from October. Maize prices declined by 1.7 percent month-on-month, also influenced by developments in the Black Sea Grain Initiative, while improved transport on the Mississippi River in the United States of America weighed on prices as well. International prices of sorghum declined by 1.2 percent in November in tandem with maize prices, while those of barley increased by 2.5 percent. International rice prices moved up by another 2.3 percent in November, influenced by currency appreciations against the United States dollar for some Asian suppliers and good buying interest.

IGC’s 2022 conference included two sessions on climate change and sustainability in the grains value chain. The panellists agreed that sustainability should be tackled using a holistic approach due to the diverse situations, including pedoclimatic factors and the wide range of operators. In 2022, we can identify several long-term approaches on sustainability from the supply side as well as in the trading sector. Some of the actors refer to “sustainable farming”, or sustainable agriculture”, farming practices considering ecological cycles. In simpler terms, sustainable farming is farming ecologically by promoting methods and practices that are economically viable, environmentally sound and protect public health. Regenerative agriculture also refers to sustainable farming practices in order to improve the conservation and rehabilitation. It focuses on soil regeneration, increasing biodiversity, improving the water cycle enhancing ecosystem service, supporting bio sequestration and increasing resilience to climate change. The panellists also discussed the need to keep ...
Les prévisions de la FAO concernant la production mondiale de céréales en 2022 ont été réduites de 7,2 millions de tonnes ce mois-ci et s’établissent à présent à 2 756 millions de tonnes, soit une baisse de 2,0 pour cent (57 millions de tonnes) en glissement annuel.

La révision à la baisse apportée ce mois-ci concerne principalement la production de maïs et, quoique dans une moindre mesure, celle de blé.
FAO’s latest forecasts point to somewhat easing of market conditions for basic foodstuffs. However, increased climate variability, conflicts and geopolitical tensions, bleak economic prospects, soaring agricultural input costs and export restrictions continue to pose challenges to global food commodity market stability.
Le déficit pluviométrique met à rude le secteur agricole au Maroc. Raréfaction des ressources hydriques, réchauffement climatique…les conditions sont toutes défavorables et laissent présager une saison agricole difficile et bien particulière voire des moins fructueuses. Chose qui ne sera pas sans effets, et se répercutera certainement sur le niveau de la production nationale, faisant ainsi planer, sur le Maroc, le spectre d’une crise alimentaire marquée par un déclin accru de la production des fruits, légumes et céréales.

As climate talks conclude in Sharm El Sheikh, for the first time ever a deal has been reached that will see agriculture integrated into the UN’s climate action body.
