The Bloomberg Agriculture Spot Index, which tracks prices for nine key agricultural commodities, is rising nearly seven percent monthly, hitting its highest level since early 2022, Bloomberg reports. The growth is being driven by climate challenges facing farmers in countries from Brazil to Vietnam and Australia.
Wheat and soybean futures rose on concerns about further stock drawdowns due to adverse weather conditions in exporting countries. Meanwhile, Arabica and Robusta coffee prices also rose due to climate change. Palm oil stocks in Southeast Asia are declining due to aging trees, further exacerbating the imbalance in the global supply chain.
The global food price index also reached a five-month high by the end of May 2024, adding new challenges for food producers and consumers around the world.
