据联合国粮农组织（FAO）5日发布的最新报告，2023年全年国际食品价格指数较上一年均值下跌13.7%。这是近年来国际食品价格的显著调整，体现了全球食品市场的波动性。在国际食品价格指数中，仅有国际食糖价格指数高于2022年。
报告指出，2023年12月，国际食品价格指数环比下跌，其中食糖报价跌幅最大。这可能与全球糖供应过剩和需求不足有关。尽管如此，其他食品类别价格普遍下跌，对全球消费者而言是个好消息。
此次下跌或与国际粮食市场的供需关系、全球经济形势、气候变化等因素共同作用有关。联合国粮农组织表示，食品价格波动对全球粮食安全和贫困人群产生较大影响，因此需要密切关注。

According to the latest report released by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) on January 5th, the international food price index for 2023 fell by 13.7% compared to the previous year’s average. This significant adjustment in international food prices reflects the volatility of the global food market. Among all categories, only the international sugar price index exceeded that of 2022.
The report indicates that in December 2023, the international food price index fell month-on-month, with the largest decline in sugar quotations. This may be related to the global surplus of sugar supply and insufficient demand. Nevertheless, prices of other food categories generally decreased, which is good news for consumers worldwide.
The decline in food prices may be attributed to various factors, including the supply-demand relationship in the international grain market, the global economic situation, and climate change. The FAO emphasizes that food price fluctuations have a significant impact on global food security and vulnerable populations, and therefore need close attention.
