The basic basket in Curitiba had a fall in cost of 3.92% in August compared to the survey published by Dieese in July of this year. However, the survey indicates that the accumulated variation reaches 10.17%,
Despite the reduction, the capital of Paraná occupies the sixth position among the most expensive of the 17 surveyed capitals, with a basic basket cost of R $ 505.54.
Dieese recalls that since March 18 he suspended the face-to-face price collection of the products that are part of the National Survey of Basic Food Basket in 16 of the 17 capitals where the survey is carried out monthly, due to the new coronavirus pandemic. Only in São Paulo did face-to-face price collection resume.
The most expensive basic basket in Brazil is in São Paulo for R $ 539.95, then comes Florianópolis with the cost of R $ 530.42 for the basket, followed by Rio de Janeiro which costs R $ 529.76 for items . In fourth place is Porto Alegre with the basic basket at a cost of R $ 528.61, and in fifth place Vitória with the basic basket at R $ 509.45.
In sixth place was Curitiba, which despite the 3.92% reduction in the value sold in August compared to July, had an increase in the price of black beans (3.27%). The drop in the global value of the basic food basket in Curitiba reflects the drop in potatoes, which had the most significant drop of 27.35%, followed by tomatoes with a reduction of 23.08% and coffee with a 3, 26% negative variation. Other products that fell were butter, French bread and wheat flour. The price was stable in July, only parboiled rice.
According to Dieese’s research, the working day necessary for the curitiba to be able to purchase basic food products is 106 hours and 26 minutes, and would cost 52.30% of the net minimum wage.
