KEY MESSAGES

• In West Africa, the 2017/18 marketing season is ending with favorable harvest prospects for 2018/19, as the rainy seasonconcluded in most countries. Early harvests along with release of carryover stocks from the previous year areprogressively revitalizing market supplies across the region. Month-to-month price variation is stable or declining atbelow last year’s levels. Prices remain above average. Insecurity-related market disruptions persist in the Greater LakeChad basin, northern and central Mali, and the Liptako-Gourma (Page 3).

• In East Africa, markets remain severely affected by insecurity and significant macro-economic challenges in Yemen, South Sudan, and Sudan disrupting market supplies. Deteriorating economic conditions in Ethiopia kept prices elevated. Maizeand sorghum prices were stable or declined because of the impending October-to-January harvest in Ethiopia, Kenya,South Sudan, and Sudan, and ample supplies in Tanzania, Uganda, and Somalia (Page 4).

• In Southern Africa, domestic maize supplies were at normal levels in September. Maize grain prices exhibited mixedtrends, which is typical in September as the lean season begins to approach. Maize grain was generally able to circulatebetween surplus and deficit areas, except for Zambia where restrictions on export permits resulted in negligible formalmaize grain exports compared to average levels. Export parity prices remain competitive in South Africa, encouragingexports to international markets (Page 5).

• In Central America, maize and bean market supplies arenear average and supported by the current Primeraharvest, carryover stocks, and imports. Maize pricesremained above average but seasonally decreased inSeptember in all countries except Nicaragua wheremarket disruptions from the ongoing political crisiscontinued to cause price increases. Bean prices werestable or decreasing and below average across theregion. In Haiti, local maize grain and local black beanprices were mixed across key reference markets whileimported rice and maize meal prices increased. TheHaitian gourde depreciated further against the USD(Page 6).

• Central Asia sustained adequate supplies andintraregional trade continues to fill local wheat deficits within the region. Kazakhstan and Pakistan are expected to have above-average upcoming wheat harvests while Afghanistan is expected to have below-average wheat production. Wheat prices remained stable and below-average in Kazakhstan, the region’s largest exporter (Page 7).

• International staple food markets remain well supplied. Rice, wheat and soybean prices decreased while maize priceswere mixed (Figure 2). Crude oil and global fertilizer prices strengthened further in September and remained above 2017levels (Page 2).

INTERNATIONAL MARKETS

Current situation • International rice prices fell in September as prospects

remain positive for the main Asian crop, which is expected by the end of the year (InterRice). Rice prices dropped closer to their five-year average levels (Figure 2). Global rice supplies are close to average (Figure 3).

• Global maize prices eased across key reference markets in September but tightened in South Africa. U.S. and Chinese harvest progressed under favorable conditions, while concerns remained over dry conditions in Brazil, the Russian Federation, and parts of the E.U. (AMIS). Maize prices were above 2017 levels but remain below their five-year average levels (FAO and USDA).

• International wheat prices were stable or falling due to stronger export competition, particularly from the Russian Federation (FAO and IGC). Wheat prices were above-average levels as market availability remains adequate, despite tightening supplies (Figure 3).

• Global soybean prices eased marginally in September but remained above average amid expectations for record U.S. yields and bumper Brazilian crops (AMIS and IGC).

• International crude oil prices increased in September as market uncertainties persist despite increased OPEC crude oil production to offset decline in Venezuela and Iran (U.S. Energy Information Administration). Crude oil prices remain above 2017 and average levels. Global fertilizer prices increased further in September and remained above 2017 levels as supply levels were unable to support a steady rise in demand (AMIS).

Outlook • Strong carryover stocks and improved production will support satisfactory global rice supply, while trade is expected to

remain close to record levels observed in 2017 owing to firm demand from Asia and Africa (InterRice and AMIS).

• Global maize stocks are expected to tighten and could potentially push stock-to-use ratio to their lowest in five years. Trade is expected to remain firm as export demand stays strong (IGC and USDA).

• Global wheat production is expected to remain below previous year levels driven by weaker production in Eastern Europe and Central Asia. Global wheat stocks are projected to fall for the first time since 2012 (World Bank and AMIS).

• Global soybean utilization is revised downward on subdued demand from China while stocks are revised sharply upwards on higher forecasts for Argentina and the U.S. (IGC and AMIS).

• International crude oil supply disruption risks remain high and could lead to greater price volatility over the coming months (U.S. Energy Information Administration). Global fertilizer prices are expected to continue strengthening from firm demand and higher energy costs (World Bank).

Staple food price trends across the countries monitored by FEWS NET will vary considerably in the coming months in response to local and regional market conditions; international market trends will play a more limited role in most countries (Figure 2). Fuel price trends in FEWS NET countries will depend on both international market conditions, the evolution of local exchange rates in relation to the U.S. Dollar, and the design and implementation of local fuel import and price policies.

WEST AFRICA

Current situation • As the 2017/18 marketing season concludes in West Africa,

supplies of staple foods remain stable or slightly below average in the Sahel. Early green harvests, recent humanitarian interventions, and release of carryover stocks by traders, as encouraged by good harvest prospects, are gradually reinforcing market supplies.

• Household demand is decreasing, with the new harvest, at a normal seasonal level, except in Senegal where demand for legumes has increased due to a sustained demand and low stocks. Current demand is dominated by urban consumption and exports. Market activities and trade flows remained disrupted in the Greater Lake Chad basin, northern and central Mali, and the Liptako-Gourma area.

• In Nigeria, as the main harvest begins, supplies are increasing across surplus and deficit markets. Thus, with most households consuming own production, cereal prices are gradually declining compared to the previous month. Likewise, cowpea prices, which were trending upwards during much of the previous season, are also declining. Moderate imported rice price increases were recorded due to high demand and current limited local rice supply. Overall, although still above previous five-year average, most staple prices in Nigeria remain below last year’s levels (Figure 4).

• In the Sahel, prices are stable or have started their seasonal decrease with promising 2018/19 harvests. Price levels are, in general, closer or slightly below last year, but above average, except in Chad (Figure 5). Cash crop prices, such as cowpeas and groundnuts, are currently favorable for producers as they are elevated at above-average levels. In coastal countries, while tuber and cereal prices are generally below average, rice prices remain above average in urban areas (non-XOF countries) due to elevated imported rice parity prices and subsequent increased local rice demand.

• The pastoral situation in the Sahel is marked by abundant and above-average pasture and water point levels, except in localized Western basin zones affected by dry spells. Livestock market activities are average following Tabaski holiday. On the other hand, cattle prices remained substantially below average, especially in the Eastern basin, due to the persisting limited export opportunity to Nigeria.

Outlook • In the Sahel, market supplies will be strengthened as new harvests intensify. Demand will be average with seasonal

stocks’ replenishment by market actors. Prices will follow seasonal trends, below last season, where harvests were limited in most areas, but above average. Only institutional purchases could affect price variations, if not well distributed across time and space (e.g., the reported planned bidding in Burkina Faso was earlier than usual).

• In Nigeria, both market food supplies and household stocks will continue to increase substantially in the coming months. Hence, prices will continue to decline until the first quarter of 2019, except for maize prices, which could shift earlier with poultry demand. Localized insecurity and flooding that caused crop losses will limit supply in some areas and will lead to higher prices compared to other parts of the country.

EAST AFRICA

Current situation • In East Africa, staple food availability and price trends

varied in September (Figure 6 and Figure 7). Trends were driven by variations in local production and import conditions, as well as conflict and poor macro-economic conditions in countries like Sudan, South Sudan, and Yemen. Livestock prices remained stable at high levels.

• In surplus-producing Tanzania and Uganda, maize, sorghum, dry bean, and cassava prices remained stable or increased across most markets as supplies from the average May-to-August harvest started to tighten. Conversely, staple food prices decreased in surplus-producing areas of Somalia and in Kenya but remained stable in other areas of both countries.

• Staple commodity prices were mixed in both Sudan and Ethiopia. After increasing in previous months, sorghum and millet prices began to decline in most markets in Sudan with the imminent start of the November-to-January harvest. However, prices remained elevated due to worsening economic conditions, including currency depreciation and high inflation. In Ethiopia grain prices varied across the country depending on the start and availability of the October-to-January harvest supplies on markets.

• Prices of staple foods remained stable or began to decline across most markets in South Sudan due to the start of green harvest for the forthcoming October-to-February harvest, seasonal improvement in road conditions, and increased imports from Uganda at lower prices following gradual gains of the local currency against hard and regional currencies with expectations of peace after the recent agreements. In Yemen, the prices of wheat and flour remained elevated and stable or increased because of conflict-related currency depreciation, high inflation, and trade disruptions.

Outlook • Most staple grain commodity prices are expected to start

seasonally declining in October with the imminent or start of the October through January 2019 harvest. In Somalia, the prices are expected to start declining in December because of expectations of increased supply from the January harvest.

• Grain prices in Tanzania, Uganda, Kenya, and Somalia are expected to remain below average levels because of average-to-above average harvests. However, the prices are expected to remain higher than five-year average levels in Sudan, South Sudan, Ethiopia, and Yemen because of persistent currency depreciation and or high inflation.

• Livestock prices are expected to follow seasonal trends and stabilize at elevated levels across most pastoral markets in the region due to favorable marketing conditions.

SOUTHERN AFRICA

Current situation • In Southern Africa, maize supplies were at normal levels in

the major markets although localized deficits remain in areas where 2018 production was below average. Formal and informal maize trade ensured the movement of surpluses to deficit areas within the region. In Madagascar, local rice supplies declined seasonally and were augmented with imported rice.

• Maize prices exhibited mixed trends across key reference markets in Southern Africa (Figure 8). Prices were generally above 2017 levels but exhibited mixed trends relative to the five-year average. In USD terms, maize grain prices were highest in Zimbabwe and Madagascar and lowest in South Africa and Tanzania (Figure 9). Prices were mixed for common substitutes such as maize meal, rice and cassava.

• In South Africa, maize supplies remained above average despite a downward revision of 2018 production estimates. Export parity prices for maize grain strengthened for a second consecutive year as fuel prices increased and the rand depreciated further against the U.S. dollar. In Zambia, maize prices exhibited mixed trends and were significantly above average following below average 2018 harvest. Formal maize grain exports remained negligible as the country prioritized stock build up for the Strategic Grain Reserve. As of September, the Food Reserve Agency had procured as estimated 30 percent of its 500,000 MT target. Informal maize grain exports fell roughly 45 percent from their month earlier levels while informal maize meal exports to the DRC were largely unchanged.

• In Zimbabwe, maize grain prices displayed mixed trends at up to 48 above 2017 price levels. Tanzania’s wholesale maize prices were mixed but remained about 50 percent below 2017 and 5-year average levels. In Malawi, maize grain prices were similarly mixed at close to 5-year average levels but were up to 58 percent above 2017 levels. In Mozambique, maize prices exhibited mixed trends and were up to 37 percent above their year earlier levels. Prices remained below their 5-year average levels. In Madagascar, rice prices increased seasonally and were above average levels while maize grain prices exhibited mixed trends. In the DRC, maize meal and cassava flour prices fell and were below their year earlier levels although prices remain significantly above 5-year average levels.

Outlook • Regional maize supply is likely to decline seasonally in October, reaching their lowest levels between January and March

2019. South Africa’s maize supply is expected to remain above average from strong carryover stocks and should satisfy needs in grain deficit countries. Zambia’s maize grain trade with grain deficit countries will likely weaken as the country prioritizes stock build up for the national grain reserve. Maize grain prices are expected to begin increasing in October 2018 and peak by February/March 2019. Prices are expected to remain significantly above 2017 levels but will be marginally above their 5-year average levels. Zambia may be the exception as prices are already significantly above average. In Madagascar, imported rice will continue to play an important role as supply of local rice declines seasonally, while prices will likely tighten further for both local and imported rice partly due to rising fuel prices.

CENTRAL AMERICA AND THE CARIBBEAN

Current situation • In Central America, markets were well supplied with

maize and beans as the Primera harvest reached its peak in September. The harvest is estimated to be average production levels and will come to an end this month, following typical trends, in Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador but is expected to continue through October in Nicaragua. As of July, international import levels were also at average levels in all countries. Informal imports from Mexico continued to support supplies in Guatemala.

• After increasing for several months, maize prices seasonally decreased or were stable in most of the region in September with the arrival of increased supplies from the ongoing harvest to markets (Figure 10). One exception is Nicaragua where prices continued to atypically increase as a result of domestic trade flow disruptions caused by the country’s ongoing political crisis. Maize prices remained above average across the region, driven by increases in international commodity and fuel prices that has led to speculation.

• Bean prices generally seasonally declined in September and were lower than their respective five-year average levels across the region.

• In Haiti, markets were adequately supplied with both local and imported staple foods. Local maize and local black bean prices were mixed across key reference markets. For both staples, prices were falling in areas where early été season harvests had begun but tightened in areas where planting was still ongoing. Imported rice and maize meal prices increased in September. Nationally, staple food prices were above 2017 and 5-year average levels except for local black bean prices, which were on average below September 2017 levels. The Haitian gourde depreciated further against the U.S. dollar (Figure 11).

Outlook • In Central America, the Primera harvests will come to an

end in October across the region. The 2018 Postrera season is expected to start on time in November and produce an average harvest in all countries. Maize prices are expected to continue to seasonally decline in every country until December and remain above average. Bean prices will likely follow seasonal trends as well, remaining stable in October and November, and then begin to decline in December with the arrival of harvest supplies on markets.

• In Haiti, cereal imports are expected to fall from previous year levels but will remain satisfactory for the remainder of MY 2018/19. Economy wide inflationary pressures will likely remain in the coming months from the combination of a weaker currency, tighter global oil prices, and socio-political pressures. This will place upward pressures on the price for imported foodstuff including rice, wheat flour, maize meal and vegetable oil. The price of local staples, particularly maize and beans, are expected to ease in the coming months as été season harvests augment household stocks and overall supply. Staple food prices may tighten in parts of the Artibonite, Nord and Nord Ouest regions that experienced a magnitude 5.9 earthquake on October 6, 2018.

CENTRAL ASIA

Current situation • Regional availability and price trends varied

considerably across Central Asia with the progression of the 2017/2018 marketing year (MY) (Figure 12 and Table 1). As detailed in the Central Asia Regional Wheat Supply and Market Outlook, localized wheat deficits are expected to be filled through intra-regional trade.

• Wheat grain export prices in Kazakhstan, the region’s largest exporter, remained stable between August and September. Prices are 3.4 percent higher than September 2017 and 11.5 percent below the five-year average.

• In Tajikistan, wheat flour prices increased since June, mainly due to a reduction in the 2018 domestic output and a weakening of the national currency. However, in September 2018, prices were close to their September 2017 values, reflecting stable export prices from Kazakhstan and increased availability of relatively cheap locally produced wheat flour.

• In Lahore, Pakistan, wheat grain prices remained stable while wheat flour prices increased negligibly between August and September by 1.5 percent and decreased only 0.5 percent compared to the five-year average. Rice prices remained stable compared to last month, 2.2 percent higher compared to September 2017, and 3.4 percent higher than the five-year average.

• In Afghanistan, the average price of wheat flour (low quality) increased slightly by 3.4 percent compared to the previous month. The largest increase occurred in Jalalabad by (7.3 percent) and Kandahar (5.5 percent) due to a decrease of supply in source markets. The variation in all other main cities was within a normal range (-1.9 to 4.3 percent). Compared to September 2017, the current average price decreased slightly by 3.1 percent. Compared to the five-year average price for September, price decreased slightly by 4.3 percent.

Outlook • Regional availability and price trends are expected to continue to vary across Central Asia.

• As of July 12, 2018, official estimates from Kazakhstan place MY 2018/2019 wheat production at 14 million metric tons (MMT), 0.8 MMT less than MY 2017/2018. Kazakhstani wheat exports in MY 2018/2019 are forecast at 8.0 MMT, 0.5 MMT less than in MY 2017/2018 due to continuing difficulties meeting export contract quality requirements. As of May 1, 2018, Kazakhstan wheat stocks totaled 9.4 MMT, three percent higher than wheat stocks on May 1, 2017 (USDA/FAS).

• In Afghanistan, due to the below-average precipitation and above-average temperature, wheat production was below average. The cereal import requirements (mainly wheat) in the MY 2018/19 (July/June) were forecast at 3.3 MMT, eight percent higher than the previous year and more than 25 percent above the five-year average. Imported wheat and wheat flour are often blended with domestic wheat to improve its protein content (FAO GIEWS).

• In Tajikistan, due to the below-average precipitation, aggregate cereal production is estimated at 1.1 (MMT), well below the five-year average and the lowest level since 2011. The anticipated decline rests on expectations of lower wheat output, which is set at 700,000 tones, about 22 percent below the 2017 level and a ten-year low. Total cereal import requirements in MY 2018/19 are forecast at 1.23 MMT, about 20 percent higher than the low level of the previous year (FAO GIEWS).

prices trends for key markets and staple foods monitored across FEWS NET countries and regions. The commodities with a reference (W) are wholesale prices. Otherwise, all

reported prices are retail.

FEWS NET is a USAID-funded activity. The content of this report does not necessarily reflect the view of the United States Agency for International Development or the United States Government.
