AbstractIn January, the FAO price indices for oilseeds and meals remained virtually unchanged. The oilseed index notched up 0.2 points (or 0.2 percent), whereas the meal index shed 0.6 points (or 0.4 percent). While both indices stood just below the level observed in the corresponding month of last year, the meal index fell short by one fifth from the peak recorded in April 2018. Meanwhile, FAO’s price index for vegetable oil appreciated for the second consecutive month (after a protracted decline), gaining 5.4 points or 4.3 percent month-on-month but remaining low relative to recent years.
