### Putin Signs Decree on Food Price Monitoring Across Supply Chain
Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a decree mandating the monitoring of food prices across the entire supply chain, from producers to retailers. This measure will enable authorities to promptly respond to sudden price spikes and analyze their causes.
The Russian government will establish a list of agencies responsible for collecting and analyzing data on food producers, suppliers, and retailers, including information on product prices, delivery volumes, and the revenues, expenses, and profits of relevant companies.
The law will come into effect on January 1, 2027.
