Resumen
Descripción
Prices of food in Bangladesh went up in the last few months. Rice and wheat prices were 15-17% higher than international prices. The country is not faced with political crisis; food security is mainly affected by chronic poverty. Agencies estimate high levels of food insecurity which could worsen due to high food prices in local markets. The Government has in place several safety net schemes to support the population especially the ultra poor in accessing food.
