Abstract(s)
The current conjunctures, namely the Covid-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine crisis, created new
challenges in the food markets worldwide, because of the pressures in the prices and constraints in the
food chains. These frameworks brought additional pressures for already existing problems related to
global warming and climate change. In this study, it was intended to analyse the evolution worldwide
of food prices over the last few years and to assess the eventual impacts of the pandemic and RussiaUkraine conflict on these contexts. Statistical information from the FAOSTAT was considered for the
period January 2016-September 2022 and the following variables: food price inflation (%); consumer
prices, food indices (2015 = 100). The impacts on food prices were greater from the Russia-Ukraine
crisis than from the Covid-19 pandemic. This is particularly worrying in more vulnerable countries.
