There are two reasons: 1. The cost of pretrial continues to rise. This directly increases the cost of food on every level, tractors cost more to run, making fertilizers cost more, and transporting the food at every level costs more. 2. We are still feeling the effects of global inflation caused by the pandemic. For some reason, all of the world leaders like to lie about this, but you can't increase the global money supplies by between 30-50% over 2 years and not expect to have increased inflation over the next ten years. This is why the central banks or minting institutions are working to enact deflationary pressure hoping to slow the rate of inflation. The problem is deflationary measures tend to hurt the middle and lower-income classes.
