Fall cattle run remains strong

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm November 4, 2022

The number of cattle headed to market dipped a bit for the week ended Oct. 27, but the fall run at Manitoba’s cattle auctions remains in full swing. “We’re starting to see bigger strings coming off of the pastures; lots of top price cattle that are still getting a premium dollar,” said Tyler Slawinski, auctioneer[...]

Lane change from downhill to bumpy road

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm February 29, 2024

As February winds down, canola has altered its course. Instead of the dreary downward trend that gave little joy, the oilseed is headed toward a bumpy road. Like frost boils and potholes marking roads throughout the Prairies, canola began facing a future of ups and downs last week. While the Intercontinental Exchange saw a short-lived[...]

Terrific prices, optimism but several ongoing issues for cattle markets through 2023

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm January 4, 2024

Record prices were a tremendous boon to the Manitoba cattle industry in 2023, but the sector continued to struggle with significant problems during the year, according to Manitoba Beef Producers general manager Carson Callum. “I think the high prices were one of the big things leading to optimism within the sector,” he said. “There’s been[...]

Slaughter cattle prices dip ahead of fall run

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm September 21, 2023

Kirk Kiesman of the Ashern Auction Mart hopes cattle prices will not slide when numbers at auction increase as Manitoba’s fall calf run gets underway. “There’s a shortage of cattle in North America with the number at record lows,” said Kiesman. “I’m hoping prices remain strong, definitely on the feeder cattle and calves. The cows,[...]

Not much excitement in canola markets

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm January 25, 2024

There’s simply not much of an upside to canola futures right now. At best, the oilseed is destined to remain rangebound, perhaps until the trade has a good handle on what spring planting on the Canadian Prairies could be like. Another idea is canola will shift back and forth until the United States Department of[...]

Hefty U.S. soybean crush propels Canadian canola upward

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm August 24, 2023

The aggressive use of soybeans in the United States for biofuel production was squarely behind the sharp upticks in canola prices for the week ended Aug. 17 on the Intercontinental Exchange. The U.S. National Oilseed Processors Association released its monthly report on Aug. 15, showing 173.3 million bushels of soybeans were crushed in July. Not[...]

Less pressure on canola from South American soybeans

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm February 8, 2024

The huge South American soybean crop weighing on North American oilseed values has become something of a question mark. The Brazil soybean harvest is well underway and reduced yields indicate the once promising crop of more than 160 million tonnes will almost certainly be less than 150 million tonnes. A dry northern half of Brazil[...]
