Global food prices have risen again

The FAO Food Price Index stood at 130.1 points in August 2025, marking an increase from last year’s levels.

After a sharp spike in 2022, global prices gradually declined, but the trend reversed in 2025. The chart shows a gradual recovery of the index amid instability in commodity markets and persistent logistical risks.

The rise in global prices remains a sensitive factor for Kyrgyzstan, as food imports continue to account for a significant share of the domestic market.

Against this backdrop, annual inflation in the country reached 9.5%, exceeding the National Bank’s target range of 5–7%.
