Information between May to September 2022 shows high inflation in almost all low-income and middle-income countries, with many experiencing double-digit inflation.<\/p>\n<p>The share of high-income countries with high food price inflation has risen to 85.7 percent. \u201cThe number of people who are experiencing acute food insecurity and will need urgent assistance is likely to climb to 222 million people in 53 countries and territories.<\/p>\n<p>Following the start of the war in Ukraine, trade-related policies imposed by countries have surged. \u201cThe global food crisis has been partially made worse by the growing number of food trade restrictions put in place by countries with a goal of increasing domestic supply and reducing prices,\u201d the Group stated.<\/p>\n<p>As of October 10, 2022, some 21 countries have implemented 26 food export bans, and eight have implemented 12 export-limiting measures. The group observed that after some brief relief in the summer of 2022, fertiliser prices were beginning to rise again.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/zambia\">Zambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Zambia.
