Indian food prices have risen sharply in the past month, with edible oils, rice, flours and vegetables up as much as 50% sequentially in some cases. Heavier-than-expected monsoon rains, lower crop output and a rupee that fell from 85.90 to 87.82 per US dollar are cited as drivers.
Monsoon damage to crops and a weaker rupee raise the landed cost of imported edible oils, supporting palm oil and other vegetable oil prices. Domestic grain and oilseed prices are also firmer.
