dc.descriptionInternational prices of all major cereals eased in June 2024. The decline in global wheat export prices mostly reflected downward pressure from seasonal supplies in the Northern Hemisphere while the fall in maize export prices was underpinned by seasonal increases in the supplies from Southern Hemisphere countries, along with favourable production prospects in the United States of America. International rice prices posted a modest decline in June, largely reflecting generally quiet trading activities. In several countries monitored by FAO, domestic staple food prices persisted at high levels in May and June 2024. Ongoing conflicts and high levels of insecurity disrupted trading activities and supported high prices of cereals in Haiti, Myanmar, South Sudan, the Sudan and some Sahelian countries. In Southern Africa, prices of maize, the main food staple, also remained at elevated levels in countries where widespread and intense drought resulted in well below-average harvests in 2024. Weak national currencies and high transport costs sustained inflationary pressure on domestic food markets and food import costs in several countries.
