# Food shock and energy tensions: Morocco faces the risk of imported inflation

> Citing the World Bank's Commodity Markets Outlook, Moroccan press reports that food commodity prices are projected to rise more than 18% cumulatively over two years to 2027, with cereals up about 25%. Energy prices are expected to ease relative to food. Morocco fears higher import bills and external pressure on its economy.

## Why it matters

Higher wheat and cereal prices raise feed grain costs for import-dependent buyers, and a 25% cereal rise would tighten supply-demand balances. Energy easing only partly offsets this for feed cost forecasts.
