FOOD SECURITY SNAPSHOT

  • Prospects for 2011 winter wheat harvest are favourable.

  • Food price inflation at 17.6 percent (as of mid-January) is much higher than the general inflation.

  • Over all food supply is improving but high cost of food is a concern especially for the low income population.
