According to preliminary data released by the Hellenic Statistical Authority (ELSTAT) the general output price index for agriculture and livestock recorded a new decrease of 3.1% in Oct. 2024 compared to the same period in 2023.

Similarly, the input price index also decreased by 3.2% in Oct. 2024 compared to the same period last year.
