In the near future, food prices will be influenced mainly by factors such as threats to the Black Sea food transport routes by Russia, as well as unpredictable weather. This is increasingly affected by climate change.
World food prices rose for the third month in a row in October 2024 and reached the highest level since April 2023. The increase in the prices of almost all staple foods, except meat, contributed to this. Data from the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) showed this.
Dairy prices rose 1.9% to the highest since January 2023, led by cheese and butter prices. Only meat prices fell slightly by 0.3% in October, with pork prices the biggest decliners, while beef prices rose due to increased demand.
We mostly deal with butter. Anna is among the readers who sent a comparison of butter prices in Slovakia and abroad to the Koktejl editors. Her photos are from a store in Italy. “I’m in Italy for work, I noticed the price of butter, it doesn’t cost more than 3 euros,” Anna wrote to her photos. According to the photos, 250-gram butter is sold for €2.49 to €2.79. Another 250-gram butter costs €2.59 in the sale. You can find the PHOTO in the gallery below the article.
