Consumer price indices are generally good sets of information to have when it comes to determining the food security of a country. As prices rise for food, the food security of a country tends to drop, so tracking that information alongside rising covid cases and lockdowns is another way of determing the effects of Covid. Interesting of note in this data is the rapid rise or spike in the food index for Australia and Nigeria respectively, especially around the time of Covid. This would imply the effect of Covid on food prices and potentially food security. Also of note is the large spikes and falls of food price inflation. This seems to be independent of Covid, so the data is probably less useful that the other two indices.
