World food prices rose in February on back of sugar rush, UN's FAO says
Global food commodity prices increased in February, driven by higher sugar, dairy, and vegetable oil prices, according to the FAO of the United Nations. The FAO Food Price Index averaged 127.1 points, with notable rises in sugar, dairy, and vegetable oil prices due to supply constraints and strong demand.
