According to Iran’s Statistical Center, “producer” point-to-point “inflation” in spring 1405, amid war and the intensification of pressures on the ailing Iranian economy, has risen by 33.8 percentage points compared with the previous season, from 65% to 98.9%.

“Producer inflation” refers to the rate of increase in the prices of goods and services at the production stage and before they reach the consumer.

Based on this report, the agriculture sector, with 144.3% inflation, experienced the highest inflation among the various sectors. Seasonal producer inflation also increased from 24.8% in winter 1404 to 28.3% in spring.

This increase was recorded while war, disruptions to economic and commercial activities, and increased pressure on the foreign exchange market and production costs have put the Iranian economy under greater strain. However, the report released by the Statistical Center does not specifically determine the share of the war in the surge in producer inflation.
