FAO Senior Grains Economist Abdolreza Abbassian says the Food Price Index fell nearly two and a half percent from November.
粮农组织高级谷物经济学家Abdolreza Abbassian说食品价格指标从十一月以来下降了近2.5个百分点。
“Well, December was simply a continuation of the downward trend that we’ve been witnessing for the last, let’s say, 5 or 6 months, which was in reaction to production numbers being revised up quite, I would say, significantly, the recession fears and a slowdown in the global economy and the strengthening of the dollar. So, I think those three factors weighed quite heavily on international prices.”
“十二月只是我们最后看到的降价趋势的一个延续,产品修订后的5或6个月都处于反应时期,我想说应特别注意对经济衰退的担忧、全球经济的放缓以及美元的加强。所以,我认为这三个因素在权衡国际价格中占据着举足轻重的位置。”
