Comparative Study of Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average and Artificial Neural Network Models in Forecasting Food Prices

ABSTRACT  Prices of food are known to be a good indicator of food security and knowledge of their future value cannot be overemphasized. Box-Jenkins ARIMA model is a frequently used approach in forecqsting time series. However, recent researches suggest that Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model can be a good alternative to the conventional use of ARIMA model.
