Recent Food Price Developments in Most Vulnerable Countries
RECENT FOOD PRICE DEVELOPMENTS IN MOST VULNERABLE COUNTRIES - ISSUE NO 2, DECEMBER 2008 - This price watch bulletin covers the quarterly period from September to November 2008 . The objective of the bulletin is to provide early warning information on price changes of staple food commodities and their likely impact on the cost of the food basket. Price changes are determined for each country on a quarterly basis. Highlights: • Prices still remain significantly higher compared to last year and long term averages, especially in Eastern and Southern Africa, Asia and Middle East. Overall, the impact on the cost of the food basket remains relatively high. • However, in most of the 36 countries monitored, prices of main staple food commodities have slightly declined over the last three months. • West Africa: Staple food prices were generally stable during the last quarter, except in Benin and Senegal where prices have continued to rise-albeit at a lower rate. The year on year price changes remain higher than changes from long term averages. • East and Southern Africa: The region shows a mixed picture. Half of the countries are still experiencing upward price trends, with significant maize price increases observed in Malawi and Kenya. Prices remain very high compared to their long run averages, especially in the Horn of Africa. The situation remains alarming in Zimbabwe due to hyperinflation . • Asia and Selected Countries: Prices have either remained stable or declined, implying that the cost of food basket in these countries has declined more when compared to other regions such as Africa. However, they remain significantly higher in comparison to the long run averages. -

The mission found that the risk of a deterioration in terms of trade to the same magnitude as that of last year is essentially negligible. According to the members of the joint mission, coarse grain prices will most likely level off or even decrease in June/July if the growing season has a good start. Grain-deficit areas could continue to be supplied by trade flows. Preliminary findings by the joint SAP/INS/WFP/SIMA/FEWS NET/FAO mission on economic conditions and household food insecurity should be available by July 10th. Joint monitoring activities in food-insecure areas by the SIMA (Agricultural Market Information System), WFP and FEWS NET show grain prices still holding steady, with small localized drops in prices highly food-insecure areas. -

Niger Food Security Outlook, January
NIGER Food Security Outlook January - September 2008 • The food situation is deteriorating in northern Figure 1. Current food security assessment, January departments affected by armed conflict. Food security through March 2008 conditions are poor across Ouallam, Téra, Dakoro, Keita, Tahoua, Abalak, Mayahi, Tanout, Gouré, Dogon Doutchi, Loga, Nguigmi and Mainé Soroa departments due to dwindling reserves and an erosion in purchasing power. According to the findings by the joint survey of vulnerability to food insecurity conducted in November‐ December of 2007, 1,441,967 persons are classified as severely food‐insecure (12 percent of the country’s population), up from a figure of 1,100,000 for the same period of 2006. The food situation in Tillabery, Say, Filingué and Konni departments is improving and the state of nutrition is stable in the southern part of the country (Figure 1). • In the most likely scenario for the period from April Source: FEWS NET Niger through June of this year, off‐season crop availability will decline and households will begin to deplete their grain reserves, particularly in Doutchi, Loga, Ouallam and Téra departments and in large portions of the agropastoral area of Tahoua, Maradi, Zinder and Diffa departments. Crops will be available on local markets, but there will be a small seasonal upswing in prices. The food situation in the third quarter of the year, from July through September, should be normal for that time of year, with an average start‐of‐ season for 2008/09 crops in June and farmers and traders unloading their inventories and selling their grain crops. -
