THE WORLD HAS TALKED ABOUT THESE PRODUCTS: HERE ARE THE PRODUCTS WHOSE PRICE HAS INCREASED THE MOST IN 2021

The supply chain crisis, energy problems and climate events, as well as one of the events that caused high inflation worldwide in the last 2021, were the rising prices of raw materials. Raw materials such as oil, natural gas, coal became the products whose prices increased the most on commodity exchanges.

Turkey Medicals, in a statement to AA correspondent, “The world economy has left 2021 behind with high inflation, food problems, energy crises and supply chain problems. Because of all these problems, there have been large increases in the price of many commodities such as coffee, oil, oats, lithium.” was said.

2020, the year of the beginning of the pandemic, had been a year in which oil prices also experienced a serious decline. With the gradual reopening of the global economy in 2021, the demand for oil has increased and, accordingly, prices have also increased. The fact that the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) is slowly increasing production has led to a decrease in global inventories and accelerated price growth. The barrel of Brent crude oil peaked at $ 87 in 2021, while this was also the highest level in three years.

NATURAL GAS HAS FLOWN

  • However, the 45 percent annual increase in oil prices remained weak compared to other energy sources. Natural gas and coal rose much faster than expected due to electricity demand from countries such as China and India. at the beginning of 2021, the growing demand for natural gas, especially from Asia, led to a major shortage of liquefied natural gas due to production cuts.
    .
  • Problems in natural gas have also shifted from Asia to Europe. The decline in Europe’s natural gas stocks has been compounded by political tensions with Russia, Europe’s most important gas supplier. Therefore, the supply of natural gas could not reach the desired level. At the end of the year, the closure of some nuclear power plants by France and Germany almost sent gas prices skyrocketing. European natural gas prices are currently hovering near their October levels, which are seven times higher than at the beginning of 2021.
    .
  • The fact that electricity producers have moved away from this source due to the increase in natural gas prices has also had a chain effect on the coal market.
    .
  • According to data compiled by Business Insider from Trading Economics, commodities whose price increased significantly on commodity exchanges in 2021 were as follows:

Crude oil

– The annual price increase of crude oil, the price of which is $ 76.5 per barrel, is 57.75 percent.

    .
  • If the 100 TL in 2003 was increased at the rate of inflation, its present value would be equivalent to 583 TL. However, the purchasing power of 583 TL does not catch up with the 100 TL in 2003. So much so that today only 64 kilograms of bread can be bought for 583 TL.
    .

In 19 years, 9.5 kilograms of veal meat have been bought for 100 TL, which is enough for 1.5 kilograms today. 100 TL of milk taken from 71 liters is hardly enough to buy 14 liters of milk today. That year, the strength of 100 TL was enough to buy 32.5 kilos of chicken meat, 24 kilos of cheese or 20.3 kilos of olives, and today it is impossible to buy even 5 kilos of chicken meat. he feels lucky if he can buy 3 kilos of cheese or 3 kilos of olives going to the Turkish market with 100 TL.
