The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2025
Addressing High Food Price Inflation for Food Security and Nutrition
Elevated inflation is eroding purchasing power and access to nutritious food, especially for low-income communities. The report links rising food prices to worsening food insecurity and child malnutrition while outlining policy measures to stabilize markets and protect the vulnerable against future shocks.
This year's report highlights how elevated inflation in many countries has undermined purchasing power and, especially among low-income populations, access to healthy diets. The report documents how high food price inflation is associated with increases in food insecurity and child malnutrition. In response to these challenges and to prevent future price shocks, the report examines policy measures adopted by countries, and outlines what is necessary going forward. It stresses the importance of coherent implementation of fiscal and monetary policies to stabilize markets, promote open and resilient trade, and protect vulnerable populations. Digital editions of FAO publications are available on the FAO website as part of FAO’s Open Access policy.
