This increase is mainly due to the rise in food prices, as well as the less marked increase in the costs of the &#8220;housing, water, gas, electricity and other fuels&#8221; component. The rise in food prices can be explained mainly by the increase in vegetable prices. As for the component &#8220;housing, water, gas, electricity and other fuels&#8221;, the increase in prices is mainly caused by the increase in the prices of solid fuels. Year-on-year, compared to the same month in 2023, the increase is 4.3%, mainly attributable to the 5.2% increase in food prices and 11.2% in transport costs. It should be noted that this price increase has been gradually declining since a peak of 8.5% in March 2023. On average over the last twelve months, the inflation rate stands at 5.7%, exceeding the 3% threshold set by the CEMAC. This increase is mainly due to the 7.6% increase in food prices and a 14.9% increase in transport costs. At the regional level, inflation rates fluctuate between 5.1% and 7.4%, with the exception of Bamenda where it is 3.6%. The core inflation rate1, which excludes the prices of petroleum products, domestic gas and fresh products in particular, is 4.1%. Inflation is therefore not only fuelled by fresh produce and energy, whose prices have risen by 12.1% and 8.7% respectively.          <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","format":[626],"meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"annee":[620],"region":[],"domaines":[],"class_list":["post-17558","statistique","type-statistique","status-publish","hentry","annee-2024-en","format-data"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ins-cameroun.cm\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/statistique\/17558","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ins-cameroun.cm\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/statistique"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ins-cameroun.cm\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/statistique"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/ins-cameroun.cm\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/statistique\/17558\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ins-cameroun.cm\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17558"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"annee","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ins-cameroun.cm\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/annee?post=17558"},{"taxonomy":"region","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ins-cameroun.cm\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/region?post=17558"},{"taxonomy":"format","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ins-cameroun.cm\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/format?post=17558"},{"taxonomy":"domaine","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ins-cameroun.cm\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/domaines?post=17558"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
