But I was wondering if this only happened in my country or in your country too?
Yeah the price of food is high nowadays on every side of the world if we talk about the U.S. the western part of this country has been affected by drought which is a production side and the prices there are very high . The drought affects the agriculture sector badly but if I talk about my country the prices are very high due to this drought as well as the political instability which goes towards higher prices of goods and daily life stuff. The vegetables are very high, the wheat pack crosses an all-time high price which makes a poor person difficult tu buy it. These are only two stuff I mentioned besides this a lot more were present that downfall our economy.
Food prices may increase in other countries of the world as well. Of course droughts hurt production,and due to the drought in the US the prices have increased to some extent, but in America, if the prices of commodities increase, check the per capita income there, which is much higher than our country, so people there are not much affected by inflation.While the prices of food items in our country are calculated according to the global market, salaries and income are not calculated according to the global market or the world, due to which we cannot fight inflation. Things are bad in our country not because of drought, but because of political instability. The country is getting worse.
Be it wheat, sugar, rice or vegetables, the prices of everything are getting expensive day by day and one of the major reasons for this is the volatility of oil prices. Oil prices keep changing which affects everything and prices go up. Some things happen by nature like drought', but this state of our country is because of our own people, our rulers and powerful people, some of whom are seen on the screen and some are giving instructions from behind the curtain. . Due to which the poor were already suffering, now the middle class people have become difficult to live.
