الحالة Ongoing
هدف موضوعي
The FAO FPMA web–based tool for analysis and dissemination of price data was developed in 2010 as part of FAO’s initiatives to address the soaring food prices. 
شركاء
The first version of the tool was developed with support from the Government of the Kingdom of Spain and the current version was supported by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. The FPMA activities are made possible thanks to the valuable price data collection work of many national institutions and international organizations. See list here.
المستفيدون
Besides supporting GIEWS and other FAO Units’ analysis, the FPMA Tool and database has become a valuable Public Good for providing the international community and decision-makers with timely and reliable information. The price data is used by a wide range of international organizations, academia and the media. Major users include the World Bank (WB), the World Food Programme (WFP), the Economic Research Service (ERS) of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI).
أنشطة
The tool is linked to the FPMA database, which includes monthly and weekly retail and/or wholesale prices for several food commodities in selected markets of each country. For each price series, supplementary information is included about the commodity (per capita consumption, self-sufficiency ratio) and the market (geographic location and brief description).
تأثير

Over 1 300 domestic and international food price series and key analysis features.

The FPMA Tool provides an easy way to access the large amounts of data present in the database. It allows users to quickly browse single price series, create comparisons among countries/markets/commodities, download of charts, data and basic statistics such as averages, standard deviations and percentage changes.

Building on the success and experience gained through developing the Food Price Monitoring and Analysis Tool at global level, the Tool has been adapted for use at country level. 

Several other countries have expressed an interest in having the FPMA Tool installed, including Bangladesh, Costa Rica and Paraguay, as it would resolve gaps in the analysis and diffusion of price data. Efforts are being made to ensure that interested countries receive the Tool as well as the related training and equipment where appropriate.
