In some areas even the cost of public transportation has tripled.<\/p>\n<p>The&nbsp;prices are varying per state, but according to Dabanga reporters, some food&nbsp;prices went up with&nbsp;20% to&nbsp;40%. In El Geneina a bag of sugar has gone up to 370 SDG ($61.40), while in Nyala customers pay 340 SDG ($56.40). &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Vehicle owners in West Darfur state are&nbsp;witnessing an acute fuel crisis, where the price of a gallon of gasoline in the black market has surged&nbsp;to&nbsp;75&nbsp;SDG ($12.43) and diesoline&nbsp;to 50 SDG ($8.30) a gallon.<\/p>\n<p>One of the truck owners&nbsp;told Radio Dabanga that the authorities and station owners have allowed only two hours per day for opening the petrol stations. The cars have to line up before 8 a.m. in order to get fuel before the stations close&nbsp;at 10 a.m. As a result, the fare for local public transportation has tripled from 1 to 3 SDG ($0.17-0.50).&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"sws_supernormalaction\"><button on=\"tap:superwebshare-lightbox\" class=\"superwebshare_normal_button1 superwebshare-button-large superwebshare-button-square superwebshare_prompt superwebshare_button_svg\" style=\"color:#ffffff;background-color: #d52631;\" ><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"superwebshare-svg\"  fill=\"currentColor\" viewBox=\"0 0 1000 1000\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"0\"><path stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" d=\"M789.86,323.67c91.79,0,164.25-72.46,164.25-164.25S881.64,0,789.86,0S625.6,72.46,625.6,164.25c0,4.83,0,14.49,0,24.15L306.76,371.98c-24.15-24.15-57.97-33.82-96.62-33.82c-91.79,0-164.25,72.46-164.25,164.25s72.46,164.25,164.25,164.25c38.65,0,72.46-14.49,96.62-33.82L625.6,821.26c0,9.66,0,14.49,0,19.32c0,86.96,72.46,159.42,159.42,159.42s159.42-72.46,159.42-159.42s-67.63-159.42-154.59-159.42c-33.82,0-67.63,9.66-96.62,33.82L374.4,526.57c0-9.66,0-19.32,0-24.15s0-14.49,0-24.15l318.84-188.41C717.39,314.01,751.21,323.67,789.86,323.67z\" \/><\/svg><span>Share article<\/span><\/button><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sharply rising sugar, oil and meat prices have hit celebrations for the Ramadan in Darfur.
