When i have time i go to local market to check prices

Vegetable prices doubled
Fruit prices doubled
Meat prices around 30% increase
Grain products around 20% increase
...

And my country  is a exporter of food products

How is it in your country ? Same ?

There is not much difference in Turkey. We are agriculturally rich country but still import some things instead of produce our own. Government don't give any help to farmers and such.
Inflation was a big problem even before covid, now the situation is going worse everyday. They manipulate numbers but can't hide facts. People are desperate and lose hope. Government has some thoughts about reform packages but they are in charge for 18 years, nobody believe them anymore.
