The Consumer Price Index (CPI) for food is a component of the all-items CPI. The CPI measures the average change over time in the prices paid by urban consumers for a representative market basket of consumer goods and services. While the all-items CPI measures the price changes for all consumer goods and services, including food, the CPI for food measures the changes in the retail prices of food items only.This record was taken from the USDA Enterprise Data Inventory that feeds into the https://data.gov catalog.

Abstract

Food price inflation is an important metric to inform economic policy but traditional sources of consumer prices are often produced with delay during crises and only at an aggregate level. This may poorly reflect the actual price trends in rural or poverty-stricken areas, where large populations reside in fragile situations. This data set includes food price estimates and is intended to help gain insight in price developments beyond what can be formally measured by traditional methods. The estimates are generated using a machine-learning approach that imputes ongoing subnational price surveys, often with accuracy similar to direct measurement of prices. The data set provides new opportunities to investigate local price dynamics in areas where populations are sensitive to localized price shocks and where traditional data are not available.

        A dataset of monthly food price inflation estimates (aggregated for all food products available in the data) is also available for all countries covered by this modeling exercise.

In 2022 and 2023, the price for a hamper with essential food products rose continuously in Portugal, reaching its highest value in March 2023, at 234.84 euros. After a decrease for a few months, prices rose again starting in August 2023. In January 2024, the price escalated once again, meaning that Portuguese families had to pay more than 243 euros to supply their pantry with essential food items. The year 2024 presented slight fluctuations, and, by July 2025, the price of a hamper peaked to its all-time highest value of 245.79 euros.

The Quarterly Food-at-Home Price Database provides food price data to support research on the economic determinants of food consumption, diet quality, and health outcomes.

Food prices refer to the average price of particular food commodities.

Food prices can vary a lot, and changes over time can often give us insights into the underlying markets and agricultural production within countries.

The price of foods gives an important indicator of the balance between agricultural production and market demand. These prices matter to consumers and producers. They have obvious impacts on consumer affordability. But they also affect the income of farmers and producers.

In low-to-middle-income countries, a large share of the population is employed in agriculture. Producers typically benefit from higher food prices; consumers from lower prices. Food markets can therefore have a strong impact on food affordability, hunger and undernourishment, and dietary quality.
