The Agricultural Price Index (API) is a monthly publication that measures the price changes in agricultural outputs and inputs for the UK. The output series reflects the price farmers receive for their products (referred to as the farm-gate price). Information is collected for all major crops (for example wheat and potatoes) and on livestock and livestock products (for example sheep, milk and eggs). The input series reflects the price farmers pay for goods and services. This is split into two groups: goods and services currently consumed; and goods and services contributing to investment. Goods and services currently consumed refer to items that are used up in the production process, for example fertiliser, or seed. Goods and services contributing to investment relate to items that are required but not consumed in the production process, such as tractors or buildings.
A price index is a way of measuring relative price changes compared to a reference point or base year which is given a value of 100. The year used as the base year needs to be updated over time to reflect changing market trends. The latest data are presented with a base year of 2020 = 100. To maintain continuity with the current API time series, the UK continues to use standardised methodology adopted across the EU. Details of this internationally recognised methodology are described in the https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/products-manuals-and-guidelines/-/ks-bh-02-003">Handbook for EU agricultural price statistics.
Please note: The historical time series with base years 2000 = 100, 2005 = 100, 2010 = 100 and 2015 = 100 are not updated monthly and presented for archive purposes only. Each file gives the date the series was last updated.
For those commodities where farm-gate prices are currently unavailable we use the best proxy data that are available (for example wholesale prices). Similarly, calculations are based on UK prices where possible but sometimes we cannot obtain these. In such cases prices for Great Britain, England and Wales or England are used instead.

Stock and commodity exchanges can benefit from various sources of revenue, ranging from fees charged through the purchasing and selling of stocks and commodities to the listing of companies on exchanges with IPOs. Yet, this hasn't meant exchanges have been free of challenges, with many companies looking to more attractive overseas markets in countries like the US that embrace stronger growth. The most notable culprits have been ARM and CRH, refusing to put up with the increasingly cheaper valuations offered by UK stock exchanges. Stock and commodity exchange revenue is expected to boom at a compound annual rate of 11.5% over the five years through 2024-25 to £15.4 billion. Boosted by the London Stock Exchange Group's Refinitiv purchase in 2021-22, the growth numbers seem inflated. The industry saw ample consolidations, aided by MiFID II's initiation in 2018. However, M&As have now decreased because of high borrowing costs. New reporting demands have bumped up regulatory costs, resulting in thinner profits. Banks, aligning with Basel IV, are pulling back on investments. Post-COVID market turbulence fuelled trades, but it's slowing down with economic stabilisation. The inflation slowdown pushes investors towards higher-value securities, boosting trade value despite lower volumes. The weak pound has been beneficial for revenue, especially for the LSEG, bolstered by dollar-earning companies in the FTSE 100. Stock and commodity exchange industry revenue is expected to show a moderate increase of 1.3% in 2024-25. Revenue is forecast to climb at a compound annual rate of 4.1% over the five years through 2029-30 to £18.8 billion. The cautious descent of interest rates from the Bank of England will slow down volatility and ensure greater business confidence in the UK. This will bring back up consolidation activity to support revenue growth, reviving the digital information and exchange markets. The most pressing concern for the industry will be potential limitations on access to the EEA for the clearing segment of the industry, which could shatter short-term growth and keep the tap running for companies exiting UK exchanges.
Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner. The International Monertary Fund (IMF) Primary Commodity Prices (PCP) database includes monthly data from 1980 onwards. The index, maintained by the IMF, tracks prices of internationally traded primary commodities, including industrial metals, foodstuffs, beverages, agricultural raw materials and fuels. It reports benchmark prices that are representative of the global market, determined by the largest exporter of a given commodity. It differs from the World Bank’s (WB) Commodity index as the WB's basket, which is designed to be representative of developing countries, does not include advanced economies' trade for the purposes of constructing the index. This database was first provided by the UK Data Service in April 2013. Further information about the IMF PCP database in the form of FAQ's can be found at IMF PCP website.

The objective of the project was to provide econometric analysis and theory for modelling energy and soft commodity prices. This necessitated data analysis and modelling together with theoretical econometrics, dealing with the specific stylised facts of commodity prices. In order to analyse energy and soft commodity prices, the determination of spot energy prices in regulated markets was first considered, from the point of view of the regulator. Direct data analysis of futures commodity prices was then undertaken, resulting in the collection of an extensive dataset of most traded futures commodity prices at a daily frequency, covering 16 different commodities over a 10-year period.

Volatility in financial markets has been high in recent years, which has, at times, benefitted the brokerage industry through greater trading activity as investors look to capitalise on price swings. Most notably, the COVID-19 pandemic, the Ukraine conflict and aggressive interest hikes from Central Banks facing rampant inflation have incited severe volatility. Revenue is expected to grow at a compound annual rate of 2.7% over the five years through 2023-24 to £38.1 billion, including estimated growth of 3.9% in 2023-24. Although volatility can benefit the industry, it can also deter investors, incentivising them to delay investments until economic uncertainty subsides. In recent years, uncertainty has mainly stemmed from the aggressive interest rate hikes and their expected trajectory, hitting stock and bond markets in 2022 and hurting trading activity. Although interest rate uncertainty persisted going into 2023-24, stock markets improved thanks to exceptional growth from large-cap tech stocks and a sharp rally at the end of the year as investors bet on the end of rate hikes. Competition has softened as considerable consolidation activity has occurred between SMEs in the brokerage industry. However, the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive II has ramped up operating costs for brokerage firms, hurting profitability. Continued investment in software to help automate compliance procedures have benefitted margins, although the brokerage industry remains labour-intensive. Revenue is forecast to grow at a compound annual rate of 3.5% over the five years through 2028-29 to £45.2 billion, while the average industry profit margin is expected to reach 24.8%. The market narrative for interest rates is higher for longer, weighing on stock markets and hitting demand for brokers as trading activity slows. However, rate cuts are expected to occur in the second half of 2024-25, supporting bond values and stocks driving revenue growth in the short term. Further regulations related to Basel III are set to come into force in January 2025, adding pressure to brokers' operating costs. Due to Brexit, large international brokers are also shifting employees to overseas domiciles, adding downward pressure to revenue growth.
