Future food prices will become less sensitive to agricultural market prices and mitigation costs

A research team from the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) analyzed how rising climate protection costs affect food prices in both richer and poorer countries. In poorer countries, these measures tend to have a stronger impact on consumer prices because agricultural raw materials make up a larger share of food costs. Most climate protection efforts put pressure on farmers. In wealthier countries, the cost of food processing and marketing plays a much bigger role. The study highlights the concrete effects of climate policies and offers important considerations for governments when designing these measures.
