- Vegetable and essential food prices fell 5% and 12%, respectively, likely driven by increased winter supply;
- NFI prices rose just 2% in November, although medicine prices rose 11% and erased October's reductions;
- Rice prices fell 5-7% and pulses fell 13%, and many other foods and NFIs shifted up or down 5-10%;
- Price rose sharply in Paletwa—possibly due to irregular village supply—but they were fairly stable elsewhere;
- The total basket price was 100% higher year-on-year, but prices were rising far slower than at this time last year.
