Products like milk and meat have increased 80% since 1994. Milk powder have more than doubled, and cheese have increased 61% according to numbers from NIBIO (Norwegian Institute for bio-economy) as the newspaper Nationen renders.

Norwegian commodity prices is increasing, while the prices in the EU stays the same as before, or increases slightly. Products like milk and meat have a steady increase in prices over time.
