Agricultural Commodities Price Outlook
Agricultural prices fall again in December
Agricultural prices fell 0.9% month on month in December, softening from November’s 1.1% drop but marking the third straight month of contraction.
Prices for corn, wheat, cotton and palm oil drove the drop in agricultural prices in December amid strong supply. In particular, the extension of the Black Sea grain deal in November has removed a key source of uncertainty for global grain supply. Moreover, palm oil prices could have been supported by a new EU law banning products linked to deforestation. In contrast, prices for the other agricultural commodities that we cover rose, with rice and wool leading the gains.
