Food and non-food basket costs have increased by 6.4 percent year-on-year to $211. This cost has remained above $200 since October 2025. However, prices have eased 1.3 percent month-on-month due to the availability of sorghum and cowpeas in markets.

The recent harvest has had a varying impact on prices. Sorghum prices have fallen 4 percent on average, with a more significant drop in Puntland. Despite this, sorghum prices remain 30 to 35 percent above last year's prices in some areas.

Further details on the market trends and harvest impacts are available from the source. The terms of trade have improved slightly but remain below last year's levels, affecting the purchasing power of goods like goats and daily wages.
