FAO Food Price Index drops by 3 points You can find the updated information at: http://www.fao.org/worldfoodsituation/wfs-home/en/ Crop Prospects report shows tightening wheat and maize supplies The FAO Crop Prospects and Food Situation was published today. Firmer production estimates for 2012 confirm tightening wheat and maize supplies while the outlook for rice remains positive. In spite of a contraction in overall cereal utilization in 2012/13, the world cereal stock-to-use ratio is projected to decline by 2 percentage points from the previous season. Early prospects for the Northern Hemisphere winter wheat crops for harvest in 2013 are mixed: growing conditions in the EU are generally favourable but dry weather is adversely affecting emergence and crop establishment in key producing areas of the United States and the Russian Federation.
