Food prices in Niger

215 series (market × food) in 53 markets, 190 with a forecast. Prices in XOF. Prices up to August 2026; forecast made October 2026.

Status of the 190 series with a forecast:

Crisis 0
Alert 0
Stress 0
Normal 190

Ranges below: November 2026, 80 % range (8 in 10 chance the price falls in this range). Chance of a spike: next month only. Warnings of new spikes have no proven skill yet. How often past forecasts were right.

Niger was added in October 2026. In its backtest the ranges were too narrow during the 2024-2025 shocks (after the July 2023 coup, with the border to Benin closed, and the 2024 floods): prices then fell outside them much more often than claimed. See the track record. How often past forecasts were right.

Warnings

No series in stress, alert or crisis.

Markets that stopped reporting

Markets that have published no price for any food for 2 months or more, counted from August 2026, the latest month most markets in Niger reported. This describes the data; it is not a warning. How this is measured.

No market has stopped reporting.

Far above the national price

Series whose price in August 2026 was at least 25 % above the national median of the same food and clearly above their usual distance. This describes the data; it is not a warning, and it can also be a data error. How this is measured.

Food basket

A simple basket for one person for one month: 12 kg Millet. Not included: pulses, cooking oil (WFP has no long enough price series for it here). A simple ration-based basket made by Staple Signals, not an official minimum expenditure basket. How the basket is made. Compare markets within this country only: baskets and currencies differ between countries.
