World food prices on down trend for now

Posted by Flora Sawita Labels: ,


World food prices are likely to fall in 2012 as fears of economic recession sap demand and supplies remain adequate, but they can rebound if weather hits crops in main producers and demand picks up, a senior economist at the United Nations’ food agency said on Thursday. 

“There is certainly a declining tendency (in food prices) amplified by the fact that on the demand side the situation is not that favorable and the supplies are pretty adequate for almost all commodities,” AbdolrezaAbbassian of the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) told Reuters. 

Global food prices measured by FAO fell in December from the previous month, extending falls seen in the past several months. 

“The only upside risks on prices should we see in the coming weeks and months will arise should the weather developments start to really have an implication for production for 2012,” Abbassian said.
