What the source says

Despite this buffer, grain prices rose by 5 percent in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the previous quarter, led by a 9 percent jump in wheat and a 4 percent rise in maize.

Checked: the figure 4% is stated in this passage. If it does not match, the extraction is wrong and we want to know.
