Basic food basket in BH was the most expensive in 2022 – 02/07/2023 – Panel SA

The basic basket that increased the most last year was Belo Horizonte, in the monthly monitoring of eight capitals carried out by Horus with FGV Ibre.

According to the survey, the accumulated variation in 2022 for the capital of Minas Gerais was greater than 31%. The most affected food group was vegetables, which rose by 109.5%, followed by fruits (85.7%) and canned goods and preserves (36.3%).

The rise in the price of vegetables and fruits is attributed to factors such as the climate, the high price of fertilizers due to the War in Ukraine and the reduction in the area planted with some products.

Following the capitals with the highest inflationary pressures on the basic food basket in the last year, appear Curitiba (25.3%) and Brasília (24.5%).

In December, baskets from Rio and São Paulo were the most expensive in the survey, costing BRL 876 and BRL 858, respectively.
