BIANNUAL REPORT ON GLOBAL FOOD MARKETS

The FAO Food Outlook Team is pleased to present this new edition of Food Outlook which incorporates many improvements, including extended coverage and a revised layout. The new edition takes account of feedback received through a recent readership survey while also taking into consideration advances in digital publishing, which is envisaged to become the main means of disseminating Food Outlook reports in the near future.

First published in November 1974, in the wake of the major world food crisis, Food Outlook is a product of FAO’s Global Information and Early Warning System on Food and Agriculture (GIEWS). Food Outlook was initially a quarterly report, before becoming monthly and then biannually since 2006. Given the fast changing global food markets, the main focus of Food Outlook reports has always been on providing timely information and forecasts with accurate early warnings and in-depth assessments.
