Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic and related lockdown measures have disrupted food systems globally, leading to fluctuations in the prices of some food commodities, from local to national levels. Yet detailed data-driven evidence of the extent, timing, and localization of the impact on food security are rarely available quickly enough or with sufficient granularity to guide policy responses.
