CRISIL's agri commodities dashboard

 

Raw material costs typically comprise 65-70% of revenue for most food manufacturers.


Given the sharp rise in commodity prices, induced by adverse geopolitical developments, elevated inflation levels, and climate change, companies need to monitor agricultural commodities more closely. 

 

CRISIL's agri commodities dashboard helps here.

 

Leveraging CRISIL’s deep domain knowledge and research capability, it provides detailed analysis of factors affecting the prices of key agricultural commodities, and our outlook thereon, enabling procurement managers to make strategic procurement decisions.

 

The dashboard also offers demand trends for agricultural commodities across industries and a snapshot of the competitive landscape to enable efficient procurement of raw material.
