The FAO food price index averaged 133.9 points in October, down from a revised 135.6 in September. Cereal, dairy and meat prices declined during the month, while the overall index remained nearly 6% above its level a year earlier.
Monthly declines point to easing pressure across several food markets, though prices remain elevated year over year. The broad index alone does not establish a clear direction for any listed feed commodity.
After 303 past report events, Oats moved a median -0.0% over 5 sessions (50% higher; middle half -2.9% to +3.4%), and -0.3% over 20.
