Report Warns El Niño Risks Could Raise Global Food Prices in 2027
A report by S P Global warns that global food prices may rise further in 2027 due to increasing fertilizer and farming costs combined with potential El Niño-related weather disruptions. The full impact on food markets is expected to emerge gradually, as farmers face high input costs and shortages of fertilizer and diesel. While fertilizer production is projected to recover slowly, consumers may experience higher food prices before agricultural supply stabilizes. The report also highlights risks to cash crops vital for livelihoods in poorer regions.
