Why it matters

Farm and mine prices are the first link in the chain and the most weather-driven; a spike here often reaches CPI food within months.

What it leaves out

Wholesale prices of goods, not what shoppers pay. Provisional figures are revised two months later. The 2022-23 base gives growth only from April 2024.

How we compute it

Year-on-year change in the index, as MoSPI computes headline WPI inflation.
