Global Food Prices Rise for the Second Consecutive Month

The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) announced today, Friday, that the global food price index has risen for the second consecutive month. In its monthly report published on its official website, the FAO stated that the global index reached 128.5 points in March. This represents an increase of 2.4 percent compared to last February. This is mainly due to the rise in wheat prices (4.3 percent) amid the possibility of American crops being affected by drought.
