The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) reported a 0.5% increase in the global food price index in June 2025 compared to May. This rise was primarily driven by higher prices for meat, vegetable oils, and dairy products. The FAO's data indicates that these categories led the upward trend in food prices worldwide. Additionally, food prices rose by 8.4% year-on-year in June, reflecting ongoing inflationary pressures in the global food market. The FAO's index reached 128.0 in June, marking a continuation of the recent upward movement in food costs.
