Economic reports show that the prices of edible oils in local markets have increased due to high demand in the global market, with the price per ton increasing by 500-1000 pounds. The prices of refined edible oil, corn oil, soybean oil, and sunflower oil have all seen significant rises. However, there has been a decline in the annual inflation rate for October 2023, with the decrease attributed to lower prices in cereal and bread, fruit, vegetable, alcoholic beverage, and medical products groups.
