The FAO Meat Price Index experienced a 0.9% decrease in November, marking the fifth consecutive month of decline, though it remains 4.1% higher than the previous year. This decrease is largely attributed to a drop in global beef prices, attributed to increased export shipments from Australia and Brazil. In contrast, prices for other meats like lamb and poultry have risen, driven by stable import demand and reduced global export supplies, respectively. Pork prices have also increased due to holiday demand and exchange rate fluctuations.
