Canola prices regain strength after tumultuous week

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm December 9, 2021

It has been quite the ride this past week for ICE Futures canola. Prices for the Canadian oilseed experienced a sharp downturn as declines in global crude oil futures generated a pull- back in edible oil values. When crude oil reversed course and made gains, then those edible oils responded positively — including canola. The[...]

Canola yields not great, but good improvement

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm September 22, 2022

As farmers contend with less-than-ideal canola yields, the main thing to keep in mind is the 2022-23 harvest will still be vastly better than last year’s. On Sept. 14, Statistics Canada issued its latest production report, following up on its previous one released Aug. 29. That one was based on satellite imagery taken at the[...]

Cattle market holds strong in face of challenges ahead

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm April 16, 2021

Despite recently backing off, Manitoba’s cattle market maintained some strength for the week ended April 8, according to Gladstone Auction Mart auctioneer Tyler Slawinski. The market, he said, is not as strong as it was at its peak about four weeks ago. “Fewer cattle are moving. Everybody is either cleaning out or they have cleaned out due[...]

Higher grain prices remain cure for higher prices

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm October 8, 2020

It is one thing to see substantial gains in futures markets, but it’s something else to see those gains sustained. Such was the case between the Sept. 30 and Oct. 1 sessions on the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT). After the Sept. 30 release of the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) reports on grain stocks[...]

Price increases seen on heavier cattle

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm January 14, 2022

Only three cattle auctions went ahead this week across Manitoba — one of which, Heartland Livestock Services’ sale at Virden, was hit with a snowstorm that drastically cut the number of head coming to market. Manager Brennin Jack said only around 130 head were sold on Jan. 5, which wasn’t big enough of a sample[...]

Fewer auctions as end of spring cattle run nears

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm June 15, 2023

It was a scant week for cattle auctions in Manitoba as only three of the eight went ahead with sales. For the week of June 2-8, only Grunthal, Ste. Rose and Winnipeg held auctions, with a total of 1,335 feeder and slaughter cattle sold. “It’s that time of year when most guys kick [their cattle][...]

Canola falls back

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm September 8, 2022

Over the course of the week, the nearby November contract lost $21.70 per tonne, to close at $812/tonne on Sept. 1. The January 2023 contract was down pretty much the same amount, losing $21.30 at $821/tonne. In[...]

Cattle markets: Fuel, feed prices weigh on values

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm March 17, 2022

Rising prices for fuel and feed are cutting into cattle prices, Brad Kehler of the Grunthal Livestock Auction Mart said. Fuel prices have skyrocketed due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the subsequent ban on Russian oil imposed by the U.S., Canada and other countries. Regular gasoline in Winnipeg ranged from $1.669 to $2.019 per litre on March[...]

Canola unlikely to see rebound

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm August 25, 2022

Ahead of the next principal field crop report from Statistics Canada, there’s some speculation that the 2022-23 canola crop could come in below 19 million tonnes. The thinking is some areas of the Prairies have received too much moisture, while other parts of the region didn’t get near enough. There was a suggestion that any[...]

Wheat values fall hard

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm June 9, 2022

Despite the strong unlikelihood of an agreement between Russia and Ukraine on exporting the latter’s grain out of its occupied and blockaded Black Sea ports, the suggestion of talks sent wheat futures tumbling over the last week. Heading into the Memorial Day long weekend in the U.S., the wheat complex made some moderate gains. The[...]
