Prices were stable in February 2009. 12 month headline and average inflation rates reached 4.4 and 9.2 percent respectively. Average inflation in 2009 is at about the same level as in 2008 (9.1 percent) while the headline inflation is substantially lower (4.4 versus 13.1 percent in 2008). Positive price movements of 0.2 percent in tomatoes were offset with the same price reduction in gasoline.
